Here is a better example. Let's pretend we are looking at my checking account through several weeks. $1,127.50 $956.30 $902.45 $876.90 $807.33 $756.87 $1200.36 $1150.65 Pretty easy to see that I am spending money, then got paid.. You could even lose some resolution by stripping off the least significant digits: $1,127 $956 $902 $876 $807 $756 $1200 $1150 You can still see what is going on with my checking account. Were those least significant digits important? Maybe, maybe not. Depends on your point of view. But what if we strip off the most signifincant digits and only examine the least significant: $0.50 $0.30 $0.45 $0.90 $0.33 $0.87 $0.36 $0.65 Can you tell anything about my checking account from that? Nope. Looks like noise. That's the way numbers work. Same for the digital samples versus time that represent the music on a CD. You can't strip off the MSBs and expect anything useful from the LSBs. But add the LSBs to the MSBs and you get more resolution.
