Polls / Re: Sound colors of codecs
Last post by Sunhillow -Edit: This is just like this: Some guitar amplifiers distorts the output and some people like this "sound color".The big difference is: guitar amps add harmonic distortion, which gives the sound a certain "colour".
Low bitrate lossy compression adds a lot of discordant material that creates more of a burbling sound. I wouldn't call that colouration.
