Hi all,
Think of the "bit" and "kHz" figures as roughly comparable to color depth
and resolution on a screen (video monitor).
The kHz figure is how many times per second the incoming analog sound wave
is sampled ("sliced"). CD quality is 44K.
(If anybody remembers Calculus, calculating the area under a curve, the more
slices, the more accurate the area calculation. Here, the more slices per
second, the more accurate the sound reproduction.)
The "bit" figure is how many bits of data represent each sample -- similar
to 8 bits on a monitor give you 256 colors, 24 bits give 16.7 million
colors.
The two together are a measure of the sound quality -- e.g., comparable to
AM radio, FM radio, CD, etc.
HTH.
