flac is just lossless compressed audio file.

Flac files don't play themselves. You need a play back system, and mine is a MX-110Z going into a MC-240 power amp powering a pair of Klipsch Forte II with Crites crossovers.

So if you are going to compare that with Acer lap top using Foobar or iTunes thru a cheap ass chinese made sound card going into a Beats head phone, good luck with that!
