If you have it set to play in hifi it will do that, by buffering until it can play. Low signal just means it may pause again to buffer at some point.
Makes sense!! Thanks again.

Yeah I guess if you bought the high res data, the data will come eventually whether it be LTE or 5G to your phone, or LTE to the car. The question is what happens then? USB input would be a direct digital input, whereas WiFI connection sends the same digital data but I guess is more prone to loss/sync issues and is lower bandwidth, and Bluetooth is the most limited bandwidth of them all? In recording studios if I remember correctly 24bit/96khz source material was connected via SPDF digital optical cable or HDMI, we never used USB because of latency problems. Multiply that by a minimum of 9+ channels of audio you’re getting with Atmos encoded audio and that’s a big data hose you’re gonna need.
It is hard for me too despite my training.I've done that but once I "reach" the 320kb/s mark (even 256 for most songs) it becomes imperceptible to me, which is completely fine.
CarPlay works through Wifi, and the bandwidth will be more than enough, I think, to be the equivalent of a wired connectionThanks for explaining this; makes sense. My education in tech continues.
Perhaps Lucid will eventually allow a “wired” connection for Carplay?
You do not get it. I said Lucid might sound better after I do the reset, dude, but the "experts" blamed it on Bluetooth instead of the Lucid software glitches. If you could not figure out that much , have a nice lifeWe get it dude, your Tesla’s audio is better than LUCID‘s in your opinion. I don’t know why you continue to go on and on and on and on and on and on about the minutia of technical details. If you don’t like your LUCID’s audio system then please feel free to sell it And move on with your life
The mods should really shut this thread down as this topic has been beaten to death
AC3 is Dolby’s compression format to fit the multiple channels, but it’s better than MP3 (I think it’s 460kbps vs MP3 320?), but to Dolby’s credit their encoding/decoding codec, which is proprietary, is to my ear less “lossy” than comparing uncompressed 24bit/96khz mixes compressed to 320kbps MP3 format. TrueHD is uncompressed. This is what is delivered to Dolby Cinema theatrical presentations. I was just leaving the film industry in 2010 when Atmos was first starting to be announced, but did get to hear my former employer’s sound design and mix for Ang Lee’s Life of Pi in Atmos in a screening room set up for it, which I believe was one of the first films to be mixed in Atmos, and WOW that was amazing. It’s only recently that music mixes have started to take advantage of Atmos format, but it’s fun when done right.Can you tell the difference between Dolby True HD Dolby Atmos and Ac3 Dolby Atmos? I am not a studio engineer; I am sure you have better ears. And I am not being sarcastic when I say that.
The car cannot play back audio over USB.I will download these MKV files, copy them on USB, and try to play on Lucid, but not sure it supports the codec. Maybe I will convert it to Ac3+JOC and retry

Amirm-trained ears, cannot tell the difference between 256k or 320k, and uncompressed. I was listening with 320k compression, di.fm through Bluetooth and people on this forum were telling me how bad it was.... Compared to that amazing Tidal Dolby Atmos everyone was raving about, which is equally compressed, considering is AC3+ JOC. But what do I know... Yep , looks like I have the last word on this , unless someone has something to addWhat are trained listeners actually listening to/for during an ABX blind test?
We've all tried to see if we could tell the difference between a lossless file and a lossy one and I was wondering (since I personally can't), what are we supposed to listen to/for? What does being a trained listener actually mean? For those who are able to tell the difference, where to do you...www.audiosciencereview.com
It is hard for me too despite my training.
I should also note that training is not limited to hearing impairments but optimal way to take the test. Ability to loop small segments for example is very important as compression artifacts vary from moment to moment. You can have all the training in the world but if all you do is play one clip, then play the other, you may very well miss the differences.
