"By the way, differences at -90 dB, such as were measured in the article, can be easily heard under circumstances that are realistic when it comes to listening to music."From my experience, using the Audio DiffMaker program as I believe that's what the article referenced used, a 90dB "correlated null depth" as measured by the program over 30 seconds or a minutes of music audio is excellent. This is not the same as saying 16-bit dynamic range can go down to -96dB...
Note that a 320kbps MP3 LAME-encoded file compared to the lossless usually scores around 65dB and the vast majority of people will already have great difficulty differentiating in blind testing.
