[serge55]

hello,
I found after several hours of listening to differ materially from the same music encoded wave and aiff flac and wav here is my ranking number 1 wav, 2 aiff and flac.
someone agree with this result,
thank you for your reply

Re: between different listening wav flac aiff

then something is likely broken on your end. There should be no difference in these three lossless file types for any decent player. Did you do a double blind test to do your comparisons? Foobar2000 and its ABX component can allow you do easily do an ABX test.

also, make sure that the volume levels were the same in all 3 types (i.e., FLAC might have had replaygain values in the tags). Even an almost imperceptible higher volume can make one source sound "better" than another.
