Ha! Actually did a blind test a while ago again to find out if a) spending a lot on a new set of IEMs is still worth it at my age, and b) whether going for anything higher than 44.1 kHz & 16 bit in my music library would be. I got 18 out of 20 right in the „compressed vs. lossless“ test I picked.
Ended up buying mid-range ChiFi IEMs instead of a more expensive pair and will stick to ‚just‘ CD quality for rips and purchases.

@mangochutney @wklj Yeah, I can hear a difference most of the time with compressed vs lossless in an a/b but I have to admit, I don’t care and listen to most things (even streaming lossless) over fucking Bluetooth. What ChiFi brand did you go for? I do actually need some wired IEMs
