Hotdog Posted April 21, 2012 Report Posted April 21, 2012 will your radio play wav files? I would do maximum VBR mp3 Quote (NEW) 2004 F-150 Build Log -->http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/192208-hotdogs-f-150-build-log/ 2003 Mercury Mountaineer Build Log --> http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/114380-hotdogs-2003-mountaineer-build-log-20-removed/page__gopid__1602379#entry1602379 2008 Equinox Build Log --> http://www.stevemead...g/#entry1475764
Kiean123 Posted April 21, 2012 Report Posted April 21, 2012 (edited) Yes. WAV is the best type for sound quality. more wav files=less song quantity. mp3 files go up 320kbps and you can change them to higher mp3 quality using itunes-rightclick-switch to aac version. 360kbps is pretty decent for listening. You can go from WAV(lossless) to mp3(lossy) but can't go mp3 to WAV(lossless) Edited April 22, 2012 by Kiean123 Quote wooohoo! -Acura RL 2005.

Baydestrian Posted April 22, 2012 Report Posted April 22, 2012 Well yeah WAV if they are direct being ripped from a CD onto compuer then put on drive. You can't take mp3 and convert to WAV and get better quality. Also, highest is 320kbps not 360kbps like said earlier.

LZTYBRN Posted April 22, 2012 Report Posted April 22, 2012 Changing the bitrate to a higher value or even converting to a better file type isn't going to make any difference (other than taking up more space). Quote

Quiet Posted April 22, 2012 Report Posted April 22, 2012 THis 320k mp3 shit pisses me off. People say use 320 but use a crappy codec like LAME. A 128k file with a good codec (MP3enc, GoGo, or L3enc) will sound tons better than 320k file encoded with LAME. Just sayin, people. WMA is better if your deck can handle it, AAC even better. WAV > every other format mentioned here, as long as your deck can handle the format. I like FLAC because it's mathematically identical to the CD but smaller than WAV, but nothing plays them.
