Yeah i diy'd some of my own 16/44.1 vs 24/96 tests . if you decide not to cheat you can set one up for yourself and it's educating . The quality is not as good as a very careful test thou . Yeas i think the experience of trying is the real value of the tests a lot of people have tried by now . If one also thinks for a while . The selection of recordings used by Archimago (and I did similar things for my own tests ) are recordings that technically is at the edge they may well have content that's beyond 16/44.1 . Most recordings dont including most sold as hirez , they can be completely encoded by 16/44.1 without any information loss . -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.
