Performed on 08.02.2003, afternoon. First test of the day.
Note : I focused on first seconds (cymbals) Therefore. I have less difficulties now to build a reliable hierarchy than the other time, with my portable PC. Notation is more representative of these seconds than for the entire file.

1L File: Sample11\TheSource_mp4.wav
1L Rating: 3.6
1L Comment: Distorted cymbals, and some lowpass I think (disto is maybe due to this lowpass). Pre-echo is audible

3R File: Sample11\TheSource_ogg.wav
3R Rating: 3.4
3R Comment: Heavy noise, covering cymbals (Vorbis 100%). Very untidy sound. ABXable on parts that doessn't have any problems with other encoders.

4L File: Sample11\TheSource_mpc.wav
4L Rating: 3.7
4L Comment: No pre-echo, but some distorsions on cymbals
---------------------------------------
5R File: Sample11\TheSource_wma.wav
5R Rating: 4.4
5R Comment: Small amount of noiise, comparable to pre-echo (but I'm not sure it is). Sound like a "little vorbis". Maybe WMA9
---------------------------------------
6R File: Sample11\TheSource_lame.wav
6R Rating: 2.3
6R Comment: Heavy distorsions on cymbals. Some added noise. Large level of pre-echo
