I totally agree Jobro! It's been a mistake all along :) One day I'll do a WAV version. (maybe)

Please don't get me wrong, but this test is bound to fail. You're using an mp3 file with 128 kb/s encoding. That file format uses psycho-acoustics which means that you'll lose audio content. To make the test you need to have the file in lossless 32bit .wav format. The reason is that you get a whole lot more treble that way. This file loses treble over 14 kHz. And... Not even an external mp3 player with a decent soundcard can play this right. Sorry for the harsh words, nothing personal intended.
