There are three seperate statements here, so I'll answer them seperately.

No! That's what you said:
"The second WAV file will sound noticably lower quality than either of the first two files."

Your the one who said:
"The lossy file will probably sound almost identical (if not identical) to the original WAV file."
How can a "lossy file" sound identical to the original WAV?
This thread isn't about the transparency of "lossy files" in the first place so I have no idea why you're mentioning it.
Quote:
Huh? What "upconverter"? Please explain.
This thread is about the decoding of AAC files to WAV files. Nothing else.
FACT:
There is zero quality loss when decoding AAC to WAV. The resulting WAV will sound exactly the same as the AAC file.
