I know the system can decode and play the higher quality FLAC files.
What i am wondering, if someone (me) without a discerning ear (hearing loss) is likely to hear the difference between the flac files and a 320 MP3 on this BMW HK sound system. I guess i can test it myself with identical recordings, i really don't want to redo my thousands of music files.
I agree with Coconut, it's not worth redoing anything. I have a mix on mine and I can barely tell the difference. The HK system is really good, but 320kbps MP3 is quite high quality and you're driving around not listening in a chair.

I already had a bunch of FLACs that I listen to at home on a high-end setup, so the advantage for me is that I can plop the same files on a flash drive and listen to them in the car without having to convert anything.
