If you want to best the performance of even a pretty
cheap CD player, you need to spend a little money on
that new sound card. I'm thinking about something like
an M-Audio Audiophile 24192.



Gasp!!!! Splutter, cough! 24bit 192kHz sample devices
are good?


They often work well at 16/44.

What happened to 16/44.1 being perfect


When did I say that?

digital is digital is digital and any 16bit DAC is
perfect!!!!?


When did I say that?


Sorry, I shall rephrase that to "CD quality is all that
anyone needs and is indistinguishable from analogue or
higher sample rates in ABX testing" Isn't that what you
say?

Cheers TT
