No recording technology be it analogue or digital can clone its input.
They are all imperfect representations.

Someone needs to watch http://xiph.org/video/vid2.shtml as it would
explain why bigger numbers are not making more accurate files.

Will try! Never thought about trying that? My guess it WON'T sound like
the original 24/172 file...
1.) If the original 16/44 file won't have the INFO so upsampling to
24/172 can't create INFO. So it will sound different...
2.) Next the upsampling by a DAC via its chip set's will also

Also analog does not have endless resolution vinyl is equvavilent of
11bit dithered digital or 13bit undithered aproximately.
If one wants to argue the virtues of analog use reel to reel tape as an
example ,vinyl has compromises it simply does not sound as the master
tapes and the master

Are you saying aiff has better tagging than flac, or that both flac and
aiff have better tagging than raw CD files?
Have you verified you can hear a difference (in a blind test) between

So, this continues what I see as a run of good news. High quality sound,
properly understood, ain't expensive, and is getting easier and easier
to reach. What you have to concern yourself with is not *that* much -
jitter isn't an issue unless something is broken. Ditto for cables. And
so on for

I read that last night; very interesting indeed, and something I've been
looking into for a while.
Late in 2013 I bought a little DAC built around a Burr-Brown chip; I
connected this to a USB isolator from electronics-shop.dk to my Sony
Vaio. The audio from the DAC feeds the aux input of a
