i don't regret typing anything it was a joke. clearly you two lack a sense of humor.
Yawn, they've been open for weeks now, and plenty of new folks are being accepted each day. Posting this here was pointless and could simply lead to invitation applications being closed again (example: two months ago where someone leaked that FSC was accepting applications again and they were promptly closed).
If you love lossless so much, join Pedro's... becoming an uploader there will help your case much more than a request thread here will.
quantity of loudspeakers is to say at least, secondary to the quality of sound. and definitely, playing sound, mastered for stereo systems (and 99% of cd's are like that) is optimal on.. guess what? 2.0 systemQuote:

Not that I don't know... I just want all of us to learn.
Depends on your ears. The only way you'll tell for yourself is doing an ABX (double blind) test of FLAC files v.s. V0 files to a point of statistical relevance.
English pleaseQuote:

You download either an ABX program or a plugin (I know they exist for foobar and winamp). You pick a FLAC and a V0 file of the same song. It then gives you a window with a button for A, B, and X. Either A or B is the MP3, and the other is FLAC. X is also either the MP3 or the FLAC. You can listen to small clips of A, B, and X multiple times, and then you choose whether the A clip or the B clip is the same file as the X clip. You repeat this (generally either 16 or 25 times) and you'll receive a result (say, 13/25), along with its statistical relevance. For example, if you get 16/25 it's much more likely due to random luck than if you got 23/25.Quote:

It's worth noting that spending money on good headphones and a decent headphone amp is much cheaper than buying a decent set of speakers and a receiver that can power them.
Do they sell good headphones in Radioshack between the price range of 40-100$? I wanna experience the true potential of FLAC for once
After reading all this thread in a row, i can't remember what the fuck was supposed to be discussed here. :huh:
what the hell happened at this thread ? :wacko:
haha...same as happens in every thread
Why's that? Planning to nick a pair or two? I know you tea leaf
wtf are you saying?? Have you been trying to act like the loungerers lately? I cant understand anything you say.. Go back to your style and stop posting how you think would make u look cool
Most times i try to avoid the lounge. I remember when i first came here and i posted in a thread there saying hi to everbody and i was told to go fuck myself and
that i was a 2bit cunt. Needless to say after that incident it kind of scared me away. Its a scary place that section.:fear::fear::crazy:

I don't know why my dog keeps going on about how FLAC is so great then.:happy:
There's nothing wrong with the lounge .It's just like the bt section where the biggest assholes make the most noise.
For most people there is no difference, or they don't have the equipment to appreciate it. Never said FLAC was for everyone, I just proposed that as a method to see whether FLAC is for you :)Quote:

that's what you get when you ask audiophiles to put their egos aside and present honest opinions.
Some couldn't even tell the difference at as low as 192kbps.
So sometimes its good to just listen to the music and enjoy it instead of listening to it for the sake of finding some forensic redundant errors.
mp3 is for the deaf:P
I'm deaf. :(
and blind, that's why you dl only xvid movies and not HD; those are for sighted people:P
and stupid right? ;)Quote:

lol, crazy thread! love all the different topics. heh heh. if someone belongs there im sure they would be there. my 2 cents is posting this makes more people want in, and they start posting requests for it, then you have a whole lot of people who want to get in, who don't belong there. anyhow, I would like to see the OP say something again! :P

I listen to most of my music that I download while exercising so quality is not really an issue.Quote:

Never enjoyed a movie simply because it at a higher resolution , only because it was entertaining or enriching .Some of the greatest movies ever made have yet to make it onto HD btw.Quote:
