If you put the r26 sinad into the calculator you get 16 bits tho?R26 linearity degrades rapidly above 18bits, so you might want to do 19bit depth processing to match the ladder accuracy and then avoid dithering? Does doing 19bits cost much in processing time compared to 16bits with dithering?
Just for R2R reference, the Holo May shows what good engineering can do (maybe about four times better). That is unlikely to be audible usually.
