Hi

Well, at least *some* of the chips out there do not make it to 96 KHz when 
sampling at 192 KHz. It’s 
been a few years since I dug into them. Back then a chip that had an internal 
filter that went to 96K
was very much the exception rather than the rule. If the only point of 192K is 
getting to a 96K bandwidth,
a lot of the chip guys missed out on it ….
