[QUOTE="raverx3m, post: 7350142, member: 563973"] well i finally gave up on waiting for any of the car audio companies to bring out a flac capable unit. they all hooked up on iphod since its what the "hipsters" are using and paying money for. as always the audiophiles are only profitable when they pay big bucks for platinum volume knobs on their ubercustom-superlimited-signed8=D- receivers any people with knowledge are harder to make profit on(in other words to fool) so we are beeing ignored and avoided at all cost.why make good quality **** when you can make cheap *** walmart bull and sell it for 140% profit the "everyday people" or "consumers" are easy to control and are very easy to brainwash by ads and false advertising. anyway im installing a car PC with a USB DAC so i can have a indash volume knob and source switch. running a 4 channel and 2 channel to power mids and tweets. the car PC has advanced and expanded enough to be available for most general public so its an option for people that want more flexibility and more options without buying new headunit every time. btw if someone still dont understand why flac. MP3 good: small size, availability, ID tag and track info bad:low bitrate, lossy format( some people do hear the difference) just like some people cant tell the difference between pepsi and coke. wav uncompressed format big file size, and doesnt support ID tags or any track info besides filename WMA same as MP3 FLAC good: lossless format, supports ID tag, supports multichannel, smaller than WAV filesize bad: not supported by any car audio, but is used widely to backup the CDs by many audiophiles to preserve CD quality and organize music collection better [/QUOTE]
