My experience in comparing raw 16/44 to 24/96 is as follows: The raw RB often impresses with a fresh, in your face sound. The upsampling renders the sound more mellow, laid back and, IMHO, more natural.Listening to difficult music such as strident strings shows in my view that the freshness of RBCD is an artifact of the low sampling frequency. I would assume that lowering the sampling frequency to 38kHz or less would even increase the "freshness."
I agree, of course, that the raw RB sound, being "fresh" might render certain pop music (eg electropop) more impressive. In some instances, the RBCD might sound even "better" than its twin SACD if played on the same gear.
