The Behringer ECM800 is a good measurement mic (I have one myself) but doesn't have a high dynamic range, so the measurements may be limited by the noise floor of the mic (I suspect it uses internal equalization to achieve a flat frequency response).
I'm not really advocating doing a test - in fact the opposite. I would only recommend doing a test if you are pretty sure you hear a difference and wanted to confirm. If you don't hear a difference, just relax and enjoy the music.
Remember: a system that is working well should NOT exhibit a difference playing back WAV and FLAC. So if a difference is noticed, it actually indicates there is a problem that needs to be fixed - it's certainly not something to be desired.
