i find that song contradicts itself. it needs quite a bit of treble to sound balanced, if not it will be just a dark murky mess.

YKYAAW... Your new high-end tube amplifier occupies a place of honor, so everyone may share the joy of its beauty

 
YKYAAW you bathe out of reverence before approaching your audio system.
 
YKYAAW you fantasize Audiophiles had an army where we would shoot 1/4 in adapters out of M16s and M249 SAWs and used Fiio e07k as grenades. We then had Schiit stacks as missile launchers shooting RCA cable plugs. We all had on HD 800s or HE-400s as standard issue helmets and body armor was made of DACs.

 
We have way too much fun on this site. XD

YKYAAW... While your non-audio enlightened friends don't understand sample / bit rates, you seek 24 bit / 96 kHz for optimal listening.

 
YKYAAW you finally understand that the master is what matters.

(Convert those 24-bit / 96 kHz files to 16-bit / 44.1 kHz and you shouldn't hear a difference. Heck, most people can't distinguish between lossless and 256 kbps AAC!)

YKYAAW.... You devise a practical way to enjoy premium audio as you sleep... a tube amplifier teddy bear!

A teddy bear that gives you warm sound and a warm hug

Indeed, getting the CD over the mp3 file will sound better mostly because of the mastering, not the bit rate/depth/etc
But hey, if you wanna pay for 96khz and have your music take up a ridiculous amount of space, go for it.
