FLAC conversion is doing nothing to the file. you can compress/decompress 1,000,000 times and in the end , run a checksum/null test. you will have the same thing as you started with.
these things have been thoroughly debunked.
I know this, no doubts, bit&bytes are exactly the same. But on Squeezebox the decompressing process us using some cpu power compared to wav and probably this is causing sq differences.
Few years ago i was telling to my friends, which where playing waves instead of flac, that it doesn't make sense etc. Than i did my own experiments i now i am converted wav listener.
