Audio quality 44 v 48 v 92khz

bugman53 · 14th April 2011, 01:09 AM

I was just thinking, When i am playing music from my laptop to my receiver with an optical cable. I have the option if 24bit 44.1, 24bit 48, 24 bit 92 and Dolby digital live. Is there any difference in the sound quality. My receiver will not take 192 24 bit though.

You should play the audio in its original format if possible. There's no point upsampling a 16bit 44.1kHz file to 24bit 96kHz, you won't improve audio quality. An optical spdif cable will support 2ch 24bit 96kHz max.
