Sorry, never intended to say -S is not working at > 48Khz, but that
"most of noise shaping" in SOX does not. -S still works, and noise
shaping works too, but only with  "slope TDPF" algorithm, that is
diferent than the 'default' one.

If you could appreciate differences between dithers and more if you exit
at <= 48 Khz I really suggets you to try noise shaping.

Yes,  -p is the option intended for the case you pointed out.
