In Reply to: Don't be a fool. 24/48 is hires. Resolution is in the bits. posted by Frank.. on November 8, 2004 at 23:17:37:
No, 24 Bit 48kHz is low resolution, you have less ambiance and a MUCH courser sound at 48kHz than you do a 96kHz. And the smoothest most relaxed sound of all is at 192kHz. Sampling frequency is just as important as bit depth. All you have to do is listen to the difference between the three.Resolution is in the bits and the Sampling Frequency. The minimum for high resolution is 88.2kHz 24 Bit, anything lower is too compromised.
"A doubling of the sample rate doubles the frequency range.
Only half correct it also doubles the amount of samples per second, twice as many samples per second equals twice the resolution.Happy listening,
