I have ripped my collection in itunes to AIFF but as I consider buying a NAS I here most are not compatible with AIFF files...is this true? Of the three which is best for sound quality and maintaining the correct metadata? Thanks for your help!
WAV. I have a WAV album downloaded from Juno that sounds much better than a FLAC rip through my Naim DAC. In fact, I'm astounded how much better it sounds. Only if WAV was more readily available to buy.
I have compared flac vs wav rip of the same CD on my Naim dac and wav has more immediacy to it.
I was curious to how a purchased wav album sounds so different than my CD wav rip. Like you said, could it be a different mastering or conversion process to wav?
