- Not the same quality

It's not the same quality as the lower bit rate versions by a long shot. Do yourself a favor before you write off the importance of this change - get the same song in both 256K and 128K format (you could rip them from your own CD if you don't want to invest $2). Listen to the 256K version first. Now listen to the 128K version - unless you suffer from hearing loss or are using a $5 pair of headphones/earbuds, the 128K version will sound like it's coming from underwater when compared head to head with the same song at 256K.
128K may be OK for many musical styles (especially "mainstream" urban genres), but a lot of depth is lost compared to the 256K version. This becomes especially obvious in progressive rock or classical recordings where there are as many quiet passages as there are loud ones and the engineer wasn't aiming at the mythical 0db CD. - Posted by: Timpraetor Posted on: 08/22/07 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
