I don't know. The discussion has been quite illuminating though. I have heard that 16 bits is within the range of human aural detection, whatever that means. > First point to consider is that you don't need any more digital range on > the input than your analog input dynamic range. Classical music can have a very wide dynamic range even within the same region of contiguous music. Pini di Roma by Ottorino Respighi would be the canonical example.
