Devialet themselves recommend 24/96 for analog inputs. 24/192 and 352 are just bigger buckets of the same stuff. Some might sound better but that's not because they're in a bigger bucket but because the mastering was done right. My advice; get the 24/96 version and enjoy the music.

That's not answering my question at all.
Just a waste of my time reading it.

Sorry Weust,

I meant to add that to the end and completely forgot. It's been a long day...and your question has already been answered. Thanks Amabrok.

I subscribe to the daily posts of Mark Waldrep of Real HD. He's very knowledgable on the subject of HD recording and he seems to be a lone crusader against the spin that's being used by almost everyone out there who wants to make a quick dollar. Please have a read through some of his posts here

and let us know what you think. He's convinced me that we're all being taken for a ride when it comes to what it actually is you need for a good sounding recording. Most companies just take an old recording, convert that to a higher definition file and charge more for it. I just don't want us to get ripped off by not getting what we pay for. One thing is for sure; If you bought a genuine High Definition recording than the least the seller should do is tell you how it was recorded and mastered. If they don't they're hiding something and it's most likely that they just copied an old file and made it bigger.

Again, sorry I didn't answer your question earlier. I hope you find something in Marks posts that interests you. Just a warning; he can get a bit boring because he's fighting the same battle every day. All that changes is the people he's fighting with.

Cheers,

Pim
