Windows Media Audio 9.2 and 9.2 lossless

Posted by: The Man With Nonaim on 12 June 2012

What is the difference between the 2 formats ?  I have downloaded the trial version of dbPoweramp and my goflex nas (with built-in upnp server) will allow my ndx to play cds ripped to windows media audio 9.2 but will not those ripped to 9.2 lossless.

 

I have searched the web to try to find out what the difference is but it's all technobabble to me.  What I need is a laymans answer to the question.  I can't help but think that 9.2 lossless is better and that my inability to rip in the lossless format means that I am not getting the best sound quality.

Try ripping to Wav (if your UPnP server handles it) or FLAC. Cheers Ian
