RE: Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle

I was the one who said that, on the Linn site, short previews of 24/88.2 WMA appeared to sound different , and better than 24/8.2 FLAC. This is with the new Gilcrist album where one can try different levels of resolution before buying.

This then exploded into a FLAC v WAV argument whereas anyone could have gone to the website and hear for themself. If it was my imagination, they were invited to say so. The fact that no one seems to have done so, seems to support what you have said.

I actually compared the downloaded the WMA 24/88.2 files to decompressed WAV files using Audition 1.5 and compared the two. The WAV file has better treble although not done listening in my hifi system yet; just through my well known Terratec 2496 card and decent amplification system thru my download computer.

Can I invite people to try on the Linn site?
