In Reply to: Question: do line-inputs vary in quality with the sound card? posted by Mark Tinordi on November 5, 2006 at 05:01:21:
I did some listening tests (recorded the same one-minute sample six times: at 44.1, 48, and 96kHz and with 24-bit and 32-bit float options) and, yes, 96kHz sounds remarkably like the LP (I got around my playback problems) and there's a pretty big difference between 48 and 96. Bit depth really didn't matter at all; they were all saved as 16-bit WAV files anyway.This means that I'll have to re-rip all of my ripped LPs in 96kHz versions... which take up twice as much disk space... and keep the 44.1 versions for CDs. Thank God I've got 300 more gigabytes on the way...
