speakers for 24/96 audio

Bottom line: I am not losing any sleep over hi rez digital. There are too many ifs to really matter at this point for me and the benefits are marginal compared to the extra cost and overhead associated with even larger data files.

Al, I found video to show what happens when sampling just above Nyquist frequency. It might be possible to fix the output with sinc or other reconstruction functions but only if signal lasts a lot of cycles. If signal is short and disappears reconstruction will have huge error.

Thanks, Kijanki. The one thing I would question in your comment is the word "huge." I'm sure that a suitably chosen test waveform comprising a very short burst of high frequency energy, and put through a 44.1kHz a/d + d/a, can result in an error that will appear huge when viewed on an appropriate time scale. But as the saying goes the proof is in the pudding, and I've felt amazed at times at how good SOME cd's that contain a lot of transient high frequency energy can sound.

Al, Huge errors applied to the highest harmonics only will result only in small sound change. There will be small difference in sound of cymbals and perhaps in ambiance.
I use 16/44 and like it, but try to be educated about it. That's all.
