Why FLAC? Because The Dude is an album of layers: percussion buried in the left channel, synth pads blooming from the rear (in surround mixes), and the legendary string arrangements by Johnny Mandel. In lossy formats, those details turn into sonic mush. In FLAC — especially played back on a decent DAC — the album becomes a time machine to 1981’s Studio A, with Quincy at the board, every fader calibrated to velvet perfection.
