Isn't he something, the mister wombat face?

Flac IS audio quality. There is no compression on it.

The CD isn't better. A decoded Flac file is back to the
exact WAV audio extracted from the CD. That K300i person is
talking absolute shit and should read up. Either way, I
still prefer to own the actual CD every time. Such as with
the new Ae where I snapped up the special edition.

Look, the process of being pressed to a CD rounds the harsh
edges off the ones and zeroes. It works much like vacuum
tubes. Otherwise the transient impulses can lacerate the
metaphysical tympanum.

That sounds interesting. Speak more to that.

This is hacky sack, not my dinner with andre. You got to
keep it in the air. You do one now.

Well, so are you saying that when you round off the serif it
actually changes the sound? Then this "vacuum tube" gets
rid of any dust or dirt that might still be present in the
mix? Does this help the metaphysical timpani sound clearer?

I prefer my digits rounded. If I extract a cd with EAC, the
roundness makes me harder. Like a big tittied woman.

Do you see?

This kind of banter is all well and good but I want to spend
4 hours arguing about religion.

fleetmouse where's mappatzee? Get him in here Jesus is
Lord.

Ha, I knew it was the word metaphysical that set you off.

Maybe we could have a good fight. What do you know about
presuppositionalism? Van Til, Bahnsen, them guys. Do you
think faith in God resolves Hume's skepticism about
induction and causality? But don't you need to presuppose a
consistent external world in order to conceive of God?

Don't worry, I live in Poland. They probably shipped it
earlier so I get it on the same day as you guys. I wouldn't
be surprised if it takes a week to get here

Yeah, I guessed you must live abroad somewhere. Good luck!

The last thing I pre-ordered from WarpMart was the HAB CD
rerelease and that came the Saturday before the Monday
release date, so fingers crossed that similar happens with
Quaristice.

for someone who has their handle inspired by the name of a
rather shit SonyEricsson phone, you must clearly understand
the intricacies of audio at the sub-atomic molecular level.

would you do me a favor?

please stand your main FOH speakers on the floor so that the
cone is facing up.

then please proceed to drop a bronze souvenir from your anus
onto the cone whilst playing Untilted.

repeat until you and your listening room is covered in
shit.

only then will you begin to even slightly grasp the
ridiculousness of your comments regarding CD vs FLAC quality
