As I said, it has nothing to do with the frequencies being cut off. It's the BPS. Lower BPS, lower quality.


It does have something to do with frequencies as well.

You do realize that lower quality produces a limited frequency range, right?

mp3 compression is designed to be "good enough". yes it filters out the stuff we normally don't hear but it also filters are things you "probably" won't hear and thats the real problem.

But when you're doing spl/competitions, you're going to want to avoid mp3 formats. Just like a human ear can't tell the difference between 140db and 141db.

ya mp3s are basically summaries of the actual song. its very apparent with something like acoustic guitar or orchestra tracks that there is stuff missing lol.

I haven't heard a really good system since last May. I mean, my brothers is ok, but it doesn't provide the highs that I'm used to.

Might head to the shop and see if they got any big projects.

Avoid I can't play CD's after a curtain volume they skip unless I keep my doors open and even then they still skip most the time and I have my HU reinforced... and NO ipod doesn't affect low end or anything for that matter it's just bit quality and how lossless the tracks are that does. I use .mp3 but I use the highest form of conversion there is and tbh my ipod is louder than my CD's. also doesn't effect TL numbers a TON of heavy hitters use IPODs and for most of us it's the only way and I'll be damned if I'm going to use .WAV for the same sound and lose half my space on my ipod. Personally it makes VERY LITTLE difference to ear and on the sensors... The CD/IPOD thing is a myth, while I agree CD's ultimatly are better it's just not a viable option for louder systems and not a big difference or as big of one as everyone makes like I said my ipods songs are louder than CD's.
