In Reply to: 32/512 possible for a blu ray audio? posted by violinist3 on March 1, 2007 at 07:06:22:
HowdyIn PCM you don't need more than 24 bits (144 dB) and it's arguable whether you need more than, say 96, 192 or 384 K samples/sec. 24 bits covers individual molecules hitting the ear drum to jet engines at X feet. Also, tho undoubtedly things will get better, it's hard to build better than 20 bit ADCs and DACs.
Or am I misunderstanding what you mean by 32/512 and 64/1028?
