Interesting... Macbook Pro 32bit 96khz.

I just got my new MBP, and I was looking in Audio MIDI setup to see if this macbook still did 96khz like my old one... not only that, they added an 88.2khz option as well as a 32 bit option! It's interesting that they don't advertise this nor set it as the default.

My early 2010 MacBook Pro has those options as well. Not sure if it is 10.6 or a new audio chip. I'd have to pull open my old one to check.

My first gen Al Macbook Pro lacks the 88.2kHz option, unfortunately.  It can upsample 88.2KHz to 96kHz, but it would have been nice to have it directly.  My older iMac is the same way.

I don't think I have any music that can use those settings... even 1411kbps losless AIFFs are 16bit 44100hz, which means even the 24bit might be overkill.
