slayermet420 rated 4 months ago- I can hear the difference on headphones acting as speakers

Viperine rated 4 months ago- Good idea, VERY bad choice of clip.

Alison-K rated 4 months ago- Could I hear the difference in sound quality? Yes. Can I take anything meaningful from that? Not really, no.

JeraDarklighter rated 4 months ago- Easy to tell; I happened to listen to the 320kb/s one first and knew before I listened to the other one that it was high quality. Then again, I have studio monitors in here. Incidentally, for those of you who seem confused in your comments... both these files are MP3. One is the standard 128kb/s bitrate that comprises most music people download on the internet. The other is the much better 320kb/s bitrate. It's not perfect... no mp3 is... but it sounded quite nice. I suspect that I wouldn't be able to tell it from a native, uncompressed WAV file. If you're interested in lossless audio, you might look into the FLAC format (free lossless audio compression). Files are bigger but they do not suffer the loss of quality that mp3s do. I was contemplating offering some of my new music for fans to download in this format... I wonder if anyone would be interested?

- A lousy clip on a poor medium. Most people who hear this will be using either computer or laptop speakers or headphones, coupled with this poor example of a clip. Anyone who has ever played an MP3 through loudspeakers in a decent sized room and really paid attention can tell you about the shallowness of 128kbps and the gigantic "hole" in the sound. Increasing the bitrate to 320kbps reduces the size of the hole, but you can still hear it.

CorrieCurtis rated 4 months ago- Couldn't tell the difference at all. Guessed A, got it right.

xtxzt rated 4 months ago- Kind of pointless but I got it right. :]

coldkid rated 4 months ago- my ears never betrayed me.

SupElectricChild rated 4 months ago- I got it right, but as a few people have said before, it's really easy if you've got a nice set a speakers.
