[QUOTE="Immacomputer, post: 2881646, member: 570419"] I have done this experiment many times with people and myself. Even a couple of my friends who claim to be true audiophiles can't tell the difference in bitrate above 192. I have a lossless recording of the album by NIN that is wonderfully recorded. I took samples of a few tracks and scaled them down. People can hear the difference between the lossless track and the 128 but not the 192. Many times, people would hear a difference only if they thought the should. If I told them that this was the lossless track and played a 192 track then played the lossless track right after, they would claim that the first track seemed more "vivid" and "alive" and shit like that. Pretty interesting stuff. [/QUOTE]
