I agree with you at 24/96 and 24/192 it is harder to tell the difference. Although for me the dead give away is the sound staging in comparison. 24/192 generally has a more spacious sound stage with instruments having better distinction. This is more so apparent on well mastered recording/good rips.
Absolutely HUMONGOUS! The album is 1.78gb. The bit rate is around 6mbps. Take Five is 241.7mb on its own. I've resampled it in 24/88.2 as not all my players handle above 96 sample rate and even that is 786mb. Only HD album I have in that sample rate. I'd run out of storage and download width if I got too many of these. Frankly, I can detect differences between 16/44 and 24/44 but I think I'd need something far mor sensitive than my ears to tell the difference to 24/96 and 24/192. I'm sure others can or claim they can but I reckon they'd have to A/B the tracks without listening to anything else to detect them. And then it would need to be blind testing.
Barring all that, Take Five is one of my most favorite albums and delighted to have it in my HD collection.
