I don't believe it makes much difference on computer speakers, unless ur blasting heavy equipment. The point of the 320 Digital Releases is made for big club venues to give the clearest sound, even though 320 is not the best quality.
Wav files are!
DJ Mach X
FLAC FTW!

And I know 320 is higher bitrate, but it's also how it's ripped and/or how it's encoded.... just because the track says 320 does not make it superior to a properly encoded 192 or hi quality VBR track....

You gotta listen to the tracks, preferably on good headphones and call it yourself.

I'm just tired of people saying they won't play a track just because it's not 320, or when you tell them it doesn't sound good they snap back with "well it's 320!"

I am not saying waltz into a club and try to play a 128 or anything, but don't get all pretentious and think because you grab evertything off soulsketch that is 320 assuming it's a legitimate digital download and copy... Try it out, test it out... and if it sounds ty, and you really want to play it, you're a dj, you'll figure out how to make it sound ok...

We did it we ty pressings of records, or whites labels....

im on a laptop & i could still tell the difference
Dj Gracjan
flac and wav are the same thing except wav is more popular amongst programs and can be played on more things.

Thanks for being a Digg relay, but just leave the stuff on there.

I totally agree with this. And not all 320's are digital! Some retards out there take VBR (variable bit rate) and convert it to a 320 CBR (constant bit rate) and it does absolutely nothing.

Please reread what you just posted. You just stated that not all mp3's encoded at 320kbps are digital.

192-320 is almost identical, there is almost no way to tell if the sound is 192 or 320 because 192 is already cd quality.

somtimes only classical music needs to be at 320 to hear all those sounds clear and crisp but that again would only be noticeable on a good sound system

because not all mp3's that are encoded at 320 are digital. If you buy a song from beatport, or audiojelly..etc then you are paying for a digital mp3, but if you downloaded it somewhere it could be a re-encode of a lower quality mp3.

I hate when people say this. By definition mp3 cannot be CD quality. Information has been removed, and therefore the file is smaller, with less 'sound'. MP3's can only have the same sample rate.

Please read what digital means and come back and join the conversation.

MP3s are always digital, they are a computer file, they have to be digital.

If you mean, that not all 320kbps mp3s are actually that sound quality, then yes you are right. Some have been re-encoded from lower quality versions.

But remember, all computer files are ALWAYS digital.

YES, technically there is less sound but we cannot tell the difference! are you telling me you can tell the difference is the file is 192 or 320?

CQ quality-meaning sounds exactly like it would sound on a cd bought from a store after you burn it back.
