Hmm, my system is far more transparent than the Sherwood - 4 grand's worth
of amplification, 2 grands worth of speakers plus a two box CD player which
comes in at a touch under 4. I will do a double blind test, and get someone
else to do the source switching. Maybe my hearing has become hyper
critical,
but I certainly find it easy to distinguish between mp3s at 160 and the
original source. That is one of the reasons why I wanted to get opinions on
the best encoder, so that I really could give mp3 a run for its money.
