I do wonder, especially since the rise of 320 kbps streaming. I mean, I can clearly hear differences between 320 kbps files and CDs, so it's a surprise so many say it doesn't matter and it sounds the same. There's a school of thought that all DACs sound the same, too, which isn't my experience.
Beginning to think the problem is further down the line, and maybe the amp or speakers aren't good enough to reveal the differences. Either that, or we've learnt to accept dumbed down hifi.
