In Reply to: New Cans o' Worms..... posted by Todd Krieger on February 12, 2006 at 02:25:23:
Lossless is lossless. If the expansion does not recover the original then it is not lossless.If you hear strange artifacts using Apple Lossless then your hardware is either broken or has a design defect (e.g. processing cannot keep up, processing is causing voltage of analogue circuitry to waver, etc...). Either way, it is not working to specification and so taking it back and getting a working one would seem a wise move.
