Nano 1g runs unstable after multiple successful installations

<< < (2/2)

soap:
Man, I wish I had your hearing!
I'm lucky to hear 17 kHz in sine sweeps, 15 kHz in real music.

To hear 96 kHz!  Dang that's impressive.

spaceviking:
96 kHz stands for DAC sampling rate, not the maximal possible tone frequency.

Or was it irony?

torne:
You referred to 192KHz sampling, which is only needed if you want to reproduce frequencies up to 96KHz (see Shannon). If you disagree with this mathematical result then yes, we are making a joke :)

spaceviking:
I happen to have heard about Shannon :) I develop frequency filters for a german HiFi company. And no - I'm not a audiophile freak :)

Still - DVD-A and SACD often present music in 24/96 - and I just wanted to listen to this in the train to work. Seems to be a little bit too much expectation.

Thanks for your help.

torne:
We get a lot of people coming around who think that you actually need to have audio at that rate for it to be better quality, which is why we joke ;)

The solution to your problem is, indeed, don't encode your audio at that rate, the CPU can't really keep up (especially since it just has to downsample it for output anyway).
