So, thanks to the advent of Computer Audio, HRA (High-Resolution Audio) is all over the place these days. Usually, this consists of 24-bit PCM in one form or another (eg. sample rates ranging from 44kHz all the way to 192kHz).Simple question... Can you tell the difference between 24/96 and 16/96 (encapsulated in 24/96 container) audio?
Also feel free to have audiophile friends give it a shot and let me know on the survey site!
Take your time to have a good listen! Instructions and link below. Closing the survey in June.Happy Easter everyone.
