RE: INTERNET BLIND TEST: MQA Core Decoding vs. Standard Hi-Res Audio

I would suggest decompressing the FLAC files to WAV or AIFF format before listening. (I know, it would make the already-huge files even bigger.) I believe lossless compression decoded in real time compromises playback fidelity (correlated jitter- attenuates vibrato and inflections), and would taint any listening comparison.
