Lets get real. Consumers of mass market products have low ability to tell good MP3 from lossless RedBook. And good RedBook can sound seriously good, but most stuff suffers from Loudness Wars. The prime benefit of 24/96 is that it is sold as audiophile, so they tone down the Loudness Wars. 24/192 is just specmanship, aka marketing fluff. -- Pat Farrell http://www.pfarrell.com/ _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
