In data compression or psychoacoustics, transparency is the ideal result of lossy data compression. If a lossily compressed result is perceptually indistinguishable from the uncompressed input, then the result can be declared to be transparent. In other words, transparency is the situation where compression artifacts are nonexistent or imperceptible.

Transparency, like sound quality, is subjective.
