ABSTRACT:
A data compression apparatus for data compressing an audio signal includes an input terminal (1) for receiving the audio signal, a 1-bit A/D converter (4) for A/D converting the audio signal so as to obtain a bitstream signal, a lossless coder (10) for carrying out a lossless data compression step on the bitstream signal so as to obtain a data-compressed bitstream signal, and an output terminal (14) for supplying the data-compressed bitstream signal.
