That just treats the symptoms. He’d be better served through ongoing behavioral therapy and a few courses in critical thinking and science.

There. Satisfied?

Yes.  Invert/mixpaste of one onto the other yields total cancellation.

I'm satisfied that you're imagining a difference.

You were asked for listening test logs, though.  These aren't those.

@ManInTheDark It's like saying that fonts are less crisp in one word-file than in another identical file. Just makes no sense.

Have you read what has been said in this thread? The two files are 100% identical. There is absolutely no way they could sound different since there is nothing different about them.

I guess your hearing must suck, your equipment is crap, or a combination of the two (I go for the last one). Mine is golden.

BTW: Greynol has proven that he's nothing but a motherf**king bully masquerading as a so-called moderator.

You really aren't getting this are you. It doesn't matter the equipment anyone is playing it on, if the source files are identical in every way (checksum, file compare, internal FLAC checksum) then they can't be the source of any sound difference. You'll need to look elsewhere in your playback chain.
Who are you and how did you get in here ?

Ah, let him be, he thinks that 81 divided by 9 will give different result depending on who wrote it on the blackboard.

Maybe its not your hearing, that is the problem
but something in between your ears.
& that really needs to be checked out.

You mean another audiophool?

There goes another one back to whichever placebophile community/coven he belongs to - wherein his wild goose chase is warmly welcomed - to report on his incursion into the "land of the heathen" that we lot probably are to them. :))

nonono! if you really "did a listening test to see whether I could tell the difference between the two", please take this: http://wiki.hydrogenaud.io/index.php?title=ABX
and give us result.
if not - ManInTheDark is a lier.

Errr ... no. He "hears" difference between two bit-identical files.

I don't mean "files which decode to the same signal". I mean two files that only differ in filenames.

If SHA512 isn't good enough (spoiler: it is!), I did a bitcompare ... see attachment.

By the way, part of me thinks this thread should rather be stickied than binned.

I know flac is the same no matter what, i more poking at that his test wav was high res.

You are whats wrong with the opionated uneducated masses.
For some reasone your think that opnions + ignorance rates higher than facts + knowledge.

You have been proven wrong and at the same time not lifted any shadow of evidence for your claim.

If you are going to keep this thread alive, at least change the topic to what it is, so people who find it in the future don't waste much time with it.

"Bit Identical files that sound different? (false)"

This thread is more of an entertainment than anything else. Reminds me of a quote from Billy Madison, which I will not put here.

[TOS #8] Delusional or troll, take your pick

Reply #48
Global FYI: I tested, at random, music files of all types (i.e 44/16, 44/24, 96.24), and always came up with the same result: Raw WAV/AIFF always kicking standard verions of the FLAC encoder. John33's version doesn't have that problem. Why is that? Maybe he uses better tools to compile his stuff than everybody else.

But, to certain arrogant f*cks here, all that matters is getting there in a Mercedes Benz & not in a Toyota Corolla. And whatever they think about something is what it's supposed to be just because they say so. The very definition of pathetic arrogance. In any case, John33 definitely has skills, and better tools, to create his stuff. I'll stick with his FLAC encoder. You babies can use whatever you want to use. Message me when you grow the f*ck up & become adults.
