Re: mp3 and the perceptual coding



Hi JJ, all,

no, I don't think the Fraunhofer web site mentions the 13db miracle. I
would have posted a direct link to it, if I had found it before.

Searching for "13db miracle" on the web already results in a couple of
hits, including a PDF of an AES 2006 presentation from Marina Bosi. The
audio files are not included, though.

I would think a similar experiment could be repeated without much effort.

Regards,
Max
