What do you want to know?

Thank you for replying…

FLAC is completely compressed and lossless, right?

Same way WAV and AIFF are also lossless but both of them are uncompressed, I mean straight out of a DAW like Ableton , FLstudio or any Hi-Res streaming service which provides in uncompressed AIFF.

If we convert FLAC to AIFF , it’s a complete waste…right? or am I wrong? Someone told me all of them are same.

FLAC to AIFF how is it possible… :neutral_face:

Yes

Never heard that type before lol.

It is and it is not a waste. AIFF is Apple compatible and if you want that then convert away, but it will be the same quality as the FLAC you used so the minor loss from the compression will still be there, just taking up more space. You can not convert and get more quality then you put in… no matter what MQA says.

FLAC is bit perfect, so no loss from the compression.

Okay if it truly is bit perfect then converting to AIFF will also retain that, just at a larger size.

I hate to create a new account but I don’t what they know who I am.
About the moondrop thing, it’s way more complex than a simple apology.
Since it obviously has nothing to do with earphones so you could just ignore this shitting post.

The picture they post are originated from a group named “水月雨闲聊福利群” (moondrop fan service small talk group), there many arkworks including NSFW in this group, it’s not an official group but some group admin are moondrop’s empolyee (the guy who post the picuture is one of them).
The picture has a text “酸奶泼到耳机上了”, means “yogurt spilled on the earphone”, yeah it’s yogurt not semen you think, the guy thought it’s fun and safe then he posted it publicly. The picture was deleted because someone report it on head-fi forum and the guy was punished and sent to other position after few days. When the group members knows the guy was punished they are angry because they think their fan service picture are censored by the “白左婊” (white left-wing bitch), they ask moondrop stand against the feminists in the offical wechat group but moondrop refused and say they won’t give any word about this thing again.
It may sound ridiculous but many of their customer think the picture is totally fine and censorship it is taking their freedom away (like CCP did), so if moondrop apologize publicly it may make them boycott moondrop’s products.

I’m surprised that hawaiibadboy from japan complaints about this because for what I know many japanese are more “conservative”, I remember years ago there was a mass protest ask the government do not censorship child sex arkworks (aka 非実在青少年), and they won. What’s even harder to believe is that a woman raped by prime minister’s reporter was called a prostitute by several famous people and there popular support for the rapist (which is free from jail). There many people in the world did not think woman, especially the non-realistic existence need the be “protected”, and they hate someone using political correctness and feminism to suppress them. This incident is just a tragedy, they should not have posted this picture from the beginning, then being caught up in the political maelstrom.

I think moondrop register an account to hifiguides because they want to show that they notice complaints here, but they keep slient because they can’t say anything, not because “don’t give a shit about it”.

I personally don’t blame them and believe they won’t post NSFW pictures publicly again, but it’s your freedom to boycott moondrop or do whatever you want. Like I said at the beginning this is a shitting post so please ignore if you feel offended.
