The original sample rate ofcourse CD's are 16/44.1 just keep it that way . If you rip something else like a music dvd or dvda , use the native sample rate of that source for example 24/96. And backup the originals ! If you need other sample rates or mp3 copies for portable use make copies instead -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.
