Oh, really?

Technically speaking, 24 bit-depth allow to reproduce the sound of a
fly farting, immediately followed by the sound of a thunderclap, both
being at relative realistic levels.

Higher sampling rates just allow the reproduction of higher
frequencies, which would lead to give these questions an answer :
- Does your audio system is able to reproduce frequencies above 20 kHz?
- Are you really able to hear frequencies above 20 kHz?

My amp and loudspeakers are supposed to be able to reproduce
frequencies up to 40 kHz, but I cannot hear a 16 kHz test tone.
So, what's the use?
