But in this case, we have the TAS measurement, which I did not read closely, just enough to try to answer your question. I had read before that the effective # of bits for the old 16-bit R2R chips was 3-4 bits, so 18 bits is way more.
On the other hand, I really dislike how the maker of my automobile does not say anything about how certain firmware is set up or how it works, but the overall result is good, nonetheless.
Either way, no matter what other people measure, I enjoy the Octave way more than any other that I have heard. I've had enough of measurements in audio that did me no good. My ears know better.
BTW, I'm not the only one that prefers 16/44.1 to 24/96, it seems. I can't explain it. I definitely would not have believed it until I heard it.
