I get the feeling that you do not really understand where we are coming from...
We don't doubt you hear a difference!
But that difference is not based on codec superiority, but mastering, volume, dynamic compression and so forth.

However, we are turning in circles here, it's all been said already. You either do some legwork yourself and compare apples with apples, or you keep believing.

BTW, lossless-capable AVRs have been around for at least 10 years... Do you really think you are the only person here who owns one?


Sorry for the off-topic loop, let's get back to x265.
