Audiochecker
It doesn't seem to perform very well with classical music. I tried sample tracks from five different classical CDs and Lossless Audio Checker (LAC) gave Result: CUTOFF for all of them. If interested, there's also True Audio's Aucdtect (or auCDtect), which hasn't been developed since 2004, but it didn't have the same problem as LAC with my classical samples – each likely has.
Lightweight, portable and simple-to-use app that checks the origin of APE, FLAC, SHN, WAV and LPAC files to verify if the format is lossless
Audiochecker is a tiny and portable tool which analyzes the source of WAV, LPAC, SHN, APE and FLAC audio formats, in order to verify if the encoding is lossless. If not, it means that the files in question are converted from other formats with lower quality, such as MP3.
Since installation is not a prerequisite, you can drop the program files anywhere on the hard disk and run the executable. It is also possible to save Audiochecker to a USB flash disk or similar device, in order to run it on any workstation with minimum effort.

Audiochecker - Check The Origins Of Your Music Files By Mike Fagan Published Apr 26, 2010 For the audiophile, FLAC, short for F ree L ossless A udio C odec, is an absolute gift. Since the codec is open source, software that will convert your CDs into this widely supported format is free and easy to find. There is a tool called Audiochecker. Seems to be working good for me so far. I had a FLAC file which I loaded in spek and saw a cutoff at about 20khz, and compared it to the YouTube rip (m4a file) which had a cutoff around 22khz. So I ran it through the tool and it confirmed the FLAC file was 95% MPEG (lossy).
What's more, no entries are added to the Windows registry, and no traces are left after removing the tool.
Featuring a user-friendly interface with a well-organized layout, Audiochecker lets you load audio stream into the workspace using the file browser, folder view, or drag-and-drop support. Plus, you can submit audio CD tracks for evaluation, as well as schedule the machine to power off on task completion.
Summarized results reveal probability percent values that testify to the files' authenticity, while a more detailed reported can be read in the log file.
Setting up the program's configuration is done through the Options screen, where you can filter the file types to check, modify the power option on task completion, include subdirectories, restrict format analysis to the smallest files of each folder, and create a log in each checked directory. Moreover, you can adjust the process priority, minimize Audiochecker to the system tray, and switch to a different UI language.
The audio diagnostic utility uses little RAM and moderate CPU, and it takes its time to perform a job. Taking into account that it hasn't been updated for a very long while, Audiochecker works smoothly on newer OS platforms and serves its purpose without error.
