The point of an ABX test is to remove any influence in your capability to "tell the difference".

Basically creating a double-blind test.

which it fails at in my opinion, by
A) streaming over the internet,
B) choosing some shitty acoustic guitar thing, and
C) having no clue what the source file's original quality was....

have a friend rip the cd and play it, there's a difference, only reason i care is because i think the music industry as a whole lost a lot with the transition to mp3, that it may never get back,

i agree the diff can be subtle, and without a comparison i have trouble myself guessing mp3, or lossless

 

[CRS]

My edit understood your post a bit better.

Yeah.

But, the point of that video was not, in and of itself, an ABX test. It was a guide on how to do it and how it works.

 

[mooooose]

WTF How did I not hear this sooner?! I blame Peterboy.

Also, this. Edit: Careful with the lower frequencies. Make sure volume is low on headphones/speakers.

If you can listen to the frequency above 18-19 kHz, then you can maybe be able to tell the difference.

damn 15 is the highest. Does that mean I'm almost deaf? I wonder how many frequencies Snoop can hear.

EDIT: Oh I just means I'm old.

wow finally rap music has evolved back to 2unlimited.

Check your hearing with a list of tones that go from 8Hz all the way up to 22,000Hz. It’s fairly common for people who are over 25 years of age to not be able to hear above 15kHz and also experience some level of hearing loss or hearing damage such as tinnitus. This online test will help you find out where your high frequency hearing cuts off.

You geezer.

Try a different pair of headphones or speakers. You might be able to listen to 16 kHz.

I could listen to the 20 kHz audio much better through my speakers than I could with my headphones. And 21 kHz is clearly noticeable with my speakers.

 

[Jay Sosa]

thanks I'll try that.

nope doesn't make a difference, I'm deaf. And old.

 

[codhand]

Love Sosa RL Grime Remix.

 

[siddx]

It's a variety of producers.

Listened to this album constantly last year. You fools skipping out are some shitty booty bitches. Lana del ray sucks, but a lot of the tracks on this album are great.

LIES.

 

[Tokubetsu]

Dunno how I missed this:
Young Scooter - Colombia (shlohmo remix)

 

[siddx]

LIES.

she cant sing worth shit and is only popular because every hipster dipshit around will beat off to her caterwauling.

 

[Esch]

lana del rey live is like hearing domestic cat abuse

 

[HiResDes]

Was hoping for a SLOWWW remix of Columbia, but still pretty nice. The Love Sosa remix though might be even better than the OG.

 

[CRS]

oh my goddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd

 

[Esch]

oh my goddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd

 

[HiResDes]

yo this RL Grime remix of Jamie Lidell is bonkers too

 

[enzo_gt]

Talib Kweli f/ Busta Rhymes - Rocket Ships (produced by RZA)

dope song, too bad I've already not to get hyped for Kweli albums! You can't fool me, Kweli!

 

[CRS]

I just wish Grime didn't ruin the atmosphere of every fucking remix he ever does. 1:03 is what I'm talking about in that What A Shame remix.

But, RL Grime has one of my favorite artist names ever.

 

[cdyhybrid]

oh my goddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd

Dope

I agree.

 

[CRS]

I agree.

And same with that Sosa remix. I would love it if it wasn't for the change up. That's why the original is still better for me.

 

[CRS]

Jessie Ware x TDE?????????????

Q stay eatin'.

 

[HiResDes]

Where is my Oxymoron?

I don't know what's more choppy, Detox's avatar or Nas' career.

At least it's healthier than, say, Weezy's problem.

At least I have another great track for my playlist tonight. I'm getting ridiculously high and even though I have a little left, it's just enough to smoke myself out.

Edit: Sorry for all this drug talk recently. I give you music as compensation. new(?) exquire track most likely not new.

for real, couldnt you have started smoking at 15 like everyone else? shit is practically legal (or literally legal, CO.) now in many states, thus removing a large portion of its swag appeal

 

[CRS]

Started at 11

 

[codhand]

Started at 11

im confused then, oh nevermind, now im not, crs had the avatar switch,

This is dope. Love the bassline. So short though!

 

[PBY]

Okay I cracked, listened to this RA. Its a little repetitive, but ya'll were right. Its hoooot as fuuuuuuuck. Definitely a step up for him.

 

[Blackace]

Bandcamp.

Click on album covers to download tapes. (4 of them) [Direct downloads] {Really fast}

I take those album covers more seriously than that Scotty tape. (These covers down have links. His website does.)

Pen and pixel still in business I see

 

[enzo_gt]

Ludacris ft. French Montana & Que - 9 Times Out of Ten. Apparently this is from "#IDGAFFridays." And there have been 2 of them already, lol. This is embarassing.

Cassidy ft. Jomo K. Johnson - Sunday School.

 

[overcast]

Ooh that Danny thread got another jolt of life. Kitty commenting on it stirred the pot.

 

[coldvein]

can you imagine going to a rap show and ending up having to see danny browns dick? id ask for my money back.

 

[Enter The 36 Chambers]

Hahahaha

 

[overcast]

On one hand, it is Danny Brown, so I think you should know how insane it will be. On the other, that would be awkward as hell.

 

[Blackace]

Imagine if you caught some on your Northface
