If you take an album in FLAC (or APE) and convert it to WAV using 5 different converters you will find that all 5 newly created WAV-versions of your album sound different. What the heck is going on here? Why do they sound different!? There are many dozens of converters out there that can do the job. I don't have the time to go through them all to find the best for the job. So, the point of this thread is to cross-fertilize, collect member feedback and come up with a list of top-three converters out there.What are your choices? I haven’t found any differences between FLAC, xACT, XLD and dBPowerAmp, but don’t know about “on the fly” conversion inside music playing programs. If you are concerned, I would just convert to wav or aiff before playing.
No, I have not. Why... is this the best forum to address my question to?As I said, though, on the fly convertors may differ. Have you asked this question at audiophilestyle.com?
