It might be easier to research the facts themselves.


Huh. Stephen, you've had the relevant facts presented to you how many
times, and you still love obfuscating them!

Look at the early history of codecs and data compression.


Gratuitous subtle change of topics noted.

As for audibly transparent, that's a moving target of sorts,


No its not. Human evolution is slow. The Fletcher Munson curves are still
relevant to what they measured.

The only thing that changed is the fact that the Fletcher Munson curves did
not tell the whole story - they ignored what has been determined since then
about masking.

like the joke about better mousetraps and better mice.


No, the mice were never actually as good as Fletcher and Munson's data
suggested to some, because they did not consider some relevant details the
real world situation, such as the fact that music is not a pure tone, and
perception is less sensitive for complex waves.
