If you are using an audio device that interfaces to the Mac @ 24-bit, then you should always use 24-bit when possible. I can explain why in detail, if you want. But, just know that 24-bit is best if your device is capable.

Keep this volume control at 100%. Software volume controls are usually damaging to the audio. The volume control on the newest iTunes is the exception. It works exceptionally well.
