Had to smile that you think you will need more than 96dB DNR to record
old vinyl :-)
(Most DAWS work internally at 32bit floating, or better now anyway)
Still, won't hurt at least.

That's a long and complicated discussion, which I don't have time for while the rice is on the stove. Suffice it to say that every declicking algorithm I've ever used works more effectively, with fewer artifacts, on 24-bit files (or the 32-bit version of them) than on 16. Worth using just on that basis.

Peace,
