I nearly cried with joy when I bought my first proper
hi-fi: a Marantz amp with Tannoy M1 speakers. It lets
me hear so much detail that I had to re-listen to
everything I own just to see what I had been missing.
On the mp3 thing, I personally can hear the difference
between 128kpbs mp3s and the original CD tracks, and I
don't feel that I have especially good ears. The
difference varies depending on the source material,
but it's definitely there. 160kbps is a much better
setting for me, and 256kpbs sounds perfect.
Don't forget BTW, that a 128kbps stereo mp3, is
actually two audio channels (left and right) at 64kbps
linked together.
um, all strictly IMO.
G-love.
