It's not that I want to retain 16 bit. If it is possible to set the the sox output stream to 24bit I'm gonna do that. Dither I wouldn't use if 24 bit output works. The guy who started the thread had no bit-depth change in the commandline btw. That's why I brought the issue up. That the Touch transforms anything to 24bit later on is a different subject. What about "there is no truth...". Anything out there proving your statement. Or do I have to do some listening tests.
