I read a very well documented report on a french forum where the tester was able to successfully ABX 16/44.1 and 24/192 on digital silence... until he used proper dithering and noise shaping algorithms to downsample the 24bit/352.8kHz DXD file he was using as a reference. However, the point is, as you say: it makes no difference in real life. -- sebp 'Last.fm' (http://www.last.fm/user/sebp) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ sebp's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11768 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85879 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
