From a simple, basic listening standpoint: The answer is no.
If you have the disk capacity the store multiple FLAC albums, then by all means do so. If space is an issue, then MP3s encoded with any recents version of LAME beyond 192kbps should be just fine - mostly.
I just bought a Astell & Kern AK100 II and Noble Audio Kaiser 10s and I can say for a fact that I just wasted three thousand dollars.
I'm now contemplating getting hypnotized into believing there's an appreciable difference so I won't feel so bad.
This is what is known as throwing good money after bad.:)
flac better of mp3, why more bitrate, and hearing better
ears of the beholder....
As far as one can observe with one's ears, yeah.Quote:

So there FLAC is better than MP3
I always prefer lossless over lossy, when I have good equipment(not phone or realtek audio :happy: ).
