Have you ever had the chance to experiment with a variety of programme
material over a wide range of sampling frequencies, etc?
Yes I have. Have you?
Yes
Proper blind
testing?
Dude I do almost all of my comparisons blind. You? How many comparisons
have you made of various issues of the same commercial titles blind?
I've done hundreds.
I'm not quite clear what you mean.
It's quite revealing.
Yes it is. Give it a try.
Why repeat what I said?
The crunch point comes at about 12 bits
What didn't you understand about "using your ears?" Let me guess you
came up with this number using blind listening tetsts yourself?
Ah - you didn't understand what I meant at all. And obviously haven't
conducted this sort of test.
(straight) Once you use companding or over sampling the waters get
cloudy. The figures for NICAM TV sound - 11 bit companded - and CD at
16 bit weren't plucked out of the air as some seem to think.
Dude keep on using those numbers to make your choices.
Not *my* choices, pal.
You get what you
deserve.
Me, I'll keep listening.
Keep giving us the proof you simply don't know what you're listening to.
