And lacking in diligence, in being able to find these claims and anecdotes.....

"Claims both published and anecdotal are regularly made for audibly superior sound quality for two-channel audio encoded with longer word lengths and/or at higher sampling rates than the 16-bit/44.1-kHz CD standard."

Funny, I've been claiming the contrary..... I've almost never preferred 24/96 or SACD playback over 16/44 CD.....

And what I've read recently, and discovered first-hand, a lot of people have even been wondering if anything beyond 320 kbps MP3 is overkill..... I personally think not, but when it comes to resolution in digital audio playback, until "fatiguing high rez" is addressed and fixed, I wouldn't go beyond CD.
