Sorry...I did misunderstand your first question. During the initial listening, though I knew the resolutions my listening partner did not. He did identify differences between the 16/44 and the 24/192. He discerned a deeper and wider soundstage and more separation between the instruments. This confirmed my own initial thoughts. Having listened again today, there is a slightly more constricted quality to the lower resolution sample than the higher. The higher resolution sample appears to relax into the soundstage opening out a little more and creating a less bright presentation.
I will investigate your second question more closely being aware that some companies do upsample the original 16/44 rates.
