FLAC not available in stingray
does anyone care that the highest quality compressed music that can be put on a flash drive is not recognized by the stingray?
|
No.

Not particularly.
I can't tell the difference between 256 kbit MP3 and FLAC. But I listen to Spotify which streams my music at 320 kbit. I also listen to XM which sounds "tinny" but not bad enough to care. |
Nope! Not in the least.

Anything above a 192kbit MP3 will probably be lost on the combination of: A) Bose B) It's a car, and a noisy one at that. That said, all of my driving/Phone music is set to max VBR encoded MP3 which sounds great on everything. Sure a FLAC on a reference audio system that runs north of $50k in speakers may sound better, but I've got bigger fish to fry with the 30-40 years I have left in my life. :D |
Nope. I ordered mine with the optional NPP sound system. It rocks. You can actually feel the sound.

i just cut out the middle man and go and kidnap the bands and have them play live in my car. Makes it a lot easier then messing with usb ports and such.

It doesn't matter what the local highschool kids are using this month; as it's likely to be something different next month. |
Another vote for no - I don't care that it does not support FLAC. The rest of the sound system is certainly not "highest quality".
|
I'm not disappointed. I think the sound system is adequate, but not great. (I have 3LT.) I wish a true hi-end system was offered as a separate option.
|
Huh uh. The Blows system is ok for listening to sports talk radio or traffic and weather, but that's about it.

Some types of music don't sound good on the system. But some types sound pretty good. I listen to all sorts of different types of music. I find that a lot of today's modern music sounds better than classic rock, for example. I listen to electronica too, and that usually sounds the best on this sound system. But I suppose that's because there's a TON of highs and bass, with hardly any mids. |
Is there a car anywhere that natively supports FLAC? I can't think of one.
If you really want lossless, convert your FLAC files of Apple Lossless or a high bit rate AAC file... no way you can tell the difference in a car with the high noise floor IMO. |
