RE: 24/176.4 or 24/88.2

The general consensus is that converting DSD to PCM will work better when done to even multiples. This was certainly the case with some software and hardware converters a few years back when comparing DSD to 88.2/24 vs. 96/24. It could well make less difference at 176.4/24 or 192/24 or with different software.

For example, Bruce Brown, the mastering engineer who did many of the early HDtracks.com SACD rips and PCM conversions, reached the conclusion that 88.2 was better than 96. I believe this was discussed in this forum quite a few years back.
