Re: Upconverting AAC files

So then in theory you could never go higher than CD quality audio which is what 128kbps wav format... i think??

So for example you cannot rip a CD at 256kbps and hear any difference because the source is still encoded at 128kbps?

Am I correct or is there a way to repair the damage done during compression and guess at the missing information to bring it back up to full quality. I know this can be done with photos.

No "theory". That's exactly right!

You can re-encode a 128 bitrate tune @ a higher encoded bitrate, however it can't be higher quality sound, than the original 128 bitrate sound...you do in fact understand.
