I stand by my statement. On my full 2 ch floor system, most 24-bit files I listen to sound better than my 16-bit files.
(hmm maybe I should stop upgrading....)
cheers,
No DAC is perfect. (Though some of them are very close.) A DAC may perform (and maybe even sound) different when processing 24/96 versus 16/44.1.
- Select a 24/96 source you are familiar with.
- Convert it to 16/44.1 with a high quality converter, such as Sox.
- Convert the result back to 24/96.
- Using a tool such as Foobar ABX, compare the original 24/96 and your doubly converted 24/96.
