sh: i just wanted to see if you were still out there.

i am positive the 24 bits thing is a scam.

i wonder if your workstation would still be dead quiet if you stacked up a rack of outboard, unbalanced components to process a recording pulled off your cable tv feed and mixed by monitoring through 6 channel ht speakers powered by a couple kwatts of amp?

i agree with your argument. specs shouldn't be bull----.

as an aside...i been wonderin' something...if you take the 6 channel analog feed off your dvd-a or sacd player into your daw, it should be dead quiet, no?
