Ran a sound test

… on a bunch of sound file formats. Interesting results… not least of which is that my ear obviously isn’t as finely tuned as I’d like to imagine :-) Really quite hard to spot differences between AIFF, Apple Lossless, 320kbps MP3 and AAC, so we’re sticking with MP3 because of the 500-odd albums we’ve already got in that format! The good news is that I discovered that the nasty blurriness I noticed the other day was due to iTunes having automatically switched on its equaliser. Grrrr. Switching it off has made an astronomical difference to the sound quality – huzzah!
