  • Check the bitrate: Constant or variable? Real FLACs typically hover around 800-1000 kbps. An MP3-to-FLAC transcode will max out at 320 kbps visually.
  • Look for 24-bit: The 2021 remaster is 24-bit. The 1991 original is 16-bit. Both are “top” depending on your taste, but 24-bit offers more headroom.
  • Log files: Proper rippers include EAC (Exact Audio Copy) logs or XLD reports. No log? No proof.
  • Spek (spectrogram analyzer) – Open the FLAC file. A true lossless file shows frequencies up to 22.05 kHz (for CD-quality). If it cuts off sharply at 16 kHz or 18 kHz, it's an MP3 transcode.
