I was referring to files that are identical when compared bit-by-bit to each others. This has nothing to do with checksums.

I can see this as a plausible explanation. I would also like to highlight that this is completely different from what Alex is claiming (identical files played under identical conditions sounding different on a consistent basis).

I don't think so. This, of course, the best possible outcome as it allows everyone to continue to believe what they want. 👺

My understanding is that different software settings was the most probable cause of the differences in that test. I'm not sure how this is science failing.

If only things were this simple. Many of us have downloaded and listened to his "identical but different" files and told him we could not hear any difference between them. These negative results are then dismissed using one or more of the following explanations: 1. Your hearing isn't good enough. 2. Your system isn't good enough. 3. You didn't hear the differences between you don't have an open mind. 4. The differences disappear when the files are sent over the Internet. You need to listen to the CDs which Alex will only send you if he believes your system is good enough. BTW, have YOU listened to his files?

Fortunately, as Barry Diament has said, these differences disappear once the CDs have been ripped to disc:

I don't think it's an ad from an Australian company. If you change the "geo=" parameter in the url, the ad will be customized to wherever you want.

I don't think the OP is going to complain.

The run-on sentence contest was last month.

That isn't the main reason why many members here have networked systems.

The fact that he uses the term "music playing software" in his profile suggests that @crenca might be correct. I'd like to expand on this but I'm working on a business plan using my "number manipulating software" and "document writing software".
