Interesting post at Audioasylum (Off Topic)

Hi Klaus,

My ultimate choice (for now): fb2k 0.92, 0.9 ASIO plugin, plus USB-Audio.com ASIO driver, plus RAMDISK.

I recently discovered that Foobar 0.92 does not buffer the tracks into memory (even if set to do so!) in combination with the USB-AUDIO.DE driver

I'll soon do a FLAC comparison I'll let you know. Data wise it's the same content in there, it is just compressed as a zip-file as far as I understood.

I have tried lossless compression a while ago and it didn't improve things. It sounded different but if it was worse is something I can't back-up.

The processor has to work harder if you use it though, the compressed file has to be unpacked before it can play.

Ciao,

Bert
