[QUOTE="croak, post: 1058373, member: 361"] To me the differences are quite audible, even on modest equipment but keep in mind thats not what you are listening to via the youtube links. One must not ignore the youtube and recording interfaces and playback chain. Depending on where one listens, maybe playback resolution is even different depending on the settings of the device you are playing youtube back on. (resolution vs data usage, though I have not looked/researched the audio side of this). With a fair headphone and just the apple dongle dac I can hear the differences connected to home wifi/fibre. Just to explain my recording a little more. The links let one listen to whats left of the differences after being distorted and coloured by the subsequent chain. Thus the differences logically would get "smaller" or partially masked. These comparisons can only be made relative to one another, not absolutes as the moment the chain changes for one of them its invalid. Even in the same chain its not an absolute as the colouration of the chain may lead to favour of one sample over the other. The chain is CD player analogue output to attenuator box (so as not to overload the AD), in to a SoundBlaster AD/DA unit and then via lightning cable the digitised output in to an apple phone thats recording video. Then youtube compresses the data on upload. I have a had a few responses and from the descriptions in these there is correlation between listeners so I believe it is quite audible for folks via youtube. [/QUOTE]
