I created a company that imports/distributes some VERY high end audio products as the exclusive US representative. Previous brands I have repped included a $350k amplifier and I've heard the best sounding components including cost no object digital sources.

That said, I'm using Win-XP but after downloading Safari for XP, my digital downloads sound noticeably better than IE8 - more clear & detailed.

I have no idea what Apple does on the audio side but my experience has been very good but still not in same ballpark as a good CD player or analog turntable/arm/cartridge combination.

Please explain to me how a browser makes a difference in how a song sounds after downloading? There are no sound codecs independent of either.
