They sound the same and cost less :) There is no point with them and they work with a standard Touch (,see my signature for a good link). 24/96 is more than enough as an end user format for human consumption ,more is just more not better . Note that i mean home playback there are a lot reasons to run the studio equipment at very high rates as they do all sort of stuff with it. Unless the provider of the files are bit shady and the different rates offered are not from the same master or maybe you don't trust their way of converting stuff :-/ For example with HD tracks you never know the original could have been an old 16/48 master even for the 24/192 . (lets not even touch the topic if 24/192 for 45 year old analog recordings it equals using a gallon bucket for carrying a cup of water ) I Also collect some hirez stuff myself ,but be aware that much if is not what it says on the tin , a large percentage of SACD are fakes too for example. If you feel that or have information that a certain 24/192 version actually are the best master available by all means get it , but these bit-rates is one the least important infos on if a master is a good or not. it has become a sales moniker some good remasters are packaged as 24/96 or 24/192 . But thatÂ’s not why they are good , a new CD version of these better version would also be fantastic too but a harder sell to audiophiles . Knowing that you can convert it to suitable formats for your own use and actually don't loose sound quality But this is bit off topic . ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mnyb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4143 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97432
