Ken,
You are right in asking. My firend and I did a hearing test. The CD sounds more detailed than the FLAC played from the EHD.
it appears to me that since the Receiver (c)is the common equipment in playing both the CD and the FLAC, it is either (a)or (b)that is suspect. Would you have an opinion,accepting that there is a difference?
