Unfortunately, that track is barely of sufficient fidelity and complexity to let you hear the difference that progressively tossing out more and more data produces.

If you're content with a 1972-vintage transfer from analog tape, then you can start with the PonoMusic-supplied 'Heart of Gold' in 256k MP3, 256k AAC, plus 44.1k/16, 96k/24, and 192k/24 LPCM. Besides, headphones take the room out of the equation, making listening anywhere an exercise in exactitude. Bearing that in mind, investing in a PonoPlayer and nice cans from Alclair, Audeze, Noble, or Sennheiser doesn't seem so ludicrous. If you think that $500 to $1,000 is an outrageous amount of money to spend on headphones, consider what a hi-fi set of loudspeakers, cabling, and a Class-A power amp would set you back. These days, flat subjective response, very low distortion, and broad bandwidth are fairly easy to obtain in a reasonably priced set of cans. In a minimalist playback configuration, all you need for exceptional sound quality is a Pono and a high-quality pair of on, over, or in-ear headphones. Since the PonoPlayer is a highly resolving product, one of the sticking points of HRA comparisons is eliminated. As I've said before if you can't hear a difference, it only means you are not able to hear a difference, your ancillary playback gear is subpar, or you're refusing to admit that which you cannot explain. Rather than succumbing to the 'I can't hear it (any difference between HRA and low-resolution versions) so you're a fool' argument so common these days, PonoRevealer lets everyone shut up and simply listen. PonoMusic provided a multi-rate, multi-format version of the Neil Young chestnut, 'Heart of Gold,' to use as an out-of-the-gate comparison.

Working in conjunction with the cross-platform PonoMusic World application, PonoRevealer enables real-time playback comparison of lossy and lossless versions transcoded from the same HRA parent.

The first was when the player acquired the ability to natively decode DSD data, and the second was the recent addition of PonoRevealer.

Running on a FOSS platform, Android to be specific, PonoPlayer has had its functionality upgraded twice since I received mine early in the delivery process.
