Despite Greynol's endorsement, MP3 is demonstrably not transparent at 192 and even I with my cloth ears can be irritated by it.  Or perhaps it is simply least effective on the types of music I prefer.


I assume you've ABXed this compared to a lossless source?

No, but it's a fact that it's a colder sound, less fruitful, kind of like a mushroom full of mud.
