Ok, I'll trust you - I honestly can't tell the difference in the audio between the two cases, but it may just be that explosions sound like explosions no matter how they're resampled ;)
It is indeed the case. To hear the difference, you need some tonal content - e.g. background music, an alarm, birds or even human speech.
