It is not enough to say that the level of quantisation noise (shut up Arnie) is equal to that of the recording in order to capture it. It surely has to be necessary that the additional noise from quantisation will not perceptibly increase the total noise. Adding the same power of noise again =3dB increase which I think should be noticeable http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4335553
I would have thought you'd want an extra bit to be on the safe side. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ adamdea's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=37603 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=105717 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
