I didn't realise Harvest was 192/24. That really is good.As for the PDF very interesting, and funnily enough confirms that DSD's dynamic range of 120db is enough! They also talk about how sensible and beneficial noisehaping is to digital audio, also confirming DSD's strategy in this regard.
Just goes to show that the two camps arn't so far apart really. I bet Meridian could do a ripper SACD player. As for whether people can hear the difference between 96/24 and either 192/24, 384/24 or DSD, well theres few people who havn't been able to hear the difference.
I content that Merdian are correct within the scope of their research, except with regards to the sample rate. It has since been shown that higher sample rates are needed to represent the analog waveform in real implementations. On the whole, you will see that there is nothing in the Meridian paper is really at odds with the DSD paper. Both are good science.
