  7. Another question: Why is FLAC preferred above WAV as they both are losless?

    G'day Casper!

    The file size is usually the factor in preference. FLAC is usually 25% - 50% less than what a wave file is. Wave files are always 1411Kbps regardless (the bit rate of a true audio CD) but FLAC can be 700-900Kbps depending on what level of FLAC you choose from 0-8. Usually I go about FLAC2 depending on how good the original CD was encoded.

    And yep, they both are indeed lossless, however I prefer FLAC because of the size. Wave is only good if I want a true to form audio rip of a new CD. Wave files are supported much better by a lot of hardware / software devices whereas FLAC isn't.

    Hope that helps.

    WAV is also mighty convenient as it will play through itunes and import on to your iPod. Portable lossless is good (if your headphones are up to the task)

    Do decent headphones actually sound good with the classic, or the same?
