Wav is the industry standard for uncompressed lossless audio. Yes 1,411kbps is the raw bit rate for a audio CD. All audio CDs that you will burn will come out as 1411kbps music files. A Wav file will fluctuate in size depending on the source material you are encoding. For example, (without getting into to much detail) an audio CD like what you buy in the stores, all have a maximum resolution of 16-bit 44,100HZ. Doing the math, when that is encoded into Wav it will give you a bit rate of 1,411kbps.
