SBC is practically transparent at these bitrates anyway, or at least on the level of other 320kbps codecs. The differences are so inaudible that even listening tests have a hard time telling the different codecs apart. http://soundexpert.org/encoders-320-kbps http://soundexpert.org/encoders-320-kbps https://habr.com/en/post/456182/ https://habr.com/en/post/456182/
These talks about replacement, higher-bitrate codecs always have always been very dubious.
- netr0ute 4y agoThe trick is, though, even though SBC is only marginally worse than lossless, because it's the lowest common denominator codec, you tend to see it with worse DACs that also have to do with the end audio quality. When you use codecs like LDAC, you tend to also see them with high quality components that would make it seem like it's LDAC that's doing the work, but it's in reality just a bonus.
