Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

You don't need more than 24 bits.

Howdy

In 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?
