Sigh, I need to remember to never read the YouTube comments on @Techmoan videos. There is *always* a huge misguided discussion about analog vs. digital that raises my blood pressure. Your argument is invalid unless you have ABX tests to back it. Hint: digital does.

Of course
@xiphmont uses all analog test equipment in that video. Who would trust those inferior digital instruments? That would be madness ;)

This is for audio Marcan but for video there is a totally different story. Even analog film reels from the sixties are now rescanned to new 4K masters. The resolution is very high.

Yes, sorry, I didn't specify. I'm talking about audio. We have reached resolution transparency for video (smartphone screen densities) but there are a lot more problems to overcome (e.g. dynamic range) and consumer technology isn't there yet for movies.

44 kHz are OK, but higher sampling rate eases analog signal reconstruction with crappy filters. Also the ear has a dynamic range greater than 100 dB (16 bit allows 96 dB). But I agree that music e.g. rarely needs such a big DR.

16 bit allows more than 96dB dynamic range (watch that Xiph video, he demonstrates it). Using oversampling to ease ADC/DAC filter design is an implementation detail of ADCs/DACs; for the actual PCM audio representation, 44kHz is sufficient.

I attest. :] MPEG4 bluray "Kalafina's Red Moon" in stereo Linear PCM audio sounds awesome.https://twitter.com/freddyncalm/status/320240507123007489 …
