Welcome to the Rockbox Technical Forums!
Also, saratoga, I might be misinterpreting your post, and it has been a very long time since I tested...but i believe, particularly running spdif-in, the iriver noisefloor is significantly better than 60dB.
By the by, this may or may not be on topic, but below is a post from over at taperssection about level setting with 24 bits - it is lengthy but kinda outlines the virtues of the extra bits
Well, what do you do when you want to EQ something +2db? Where does that 2db go? Into clipping of course, unless you lower the input level of the plug in, which is going to lose any hypothetical S/N benefit you had preserved anyway.
60dBA == accoustic noise, not electrical noise. Â At a concert, you will be limited by the noise of the event, not the electronics (and certainly not the software).
Any good EQ normalizes downward, not upward. Â So if you want to EQ to +2dB, the entire track gets lowered by 2dB, and then the EQ is applied. This way you don't clip.

Not the things that I usually record.

One of the most notable advantages with higher resolution in recordings is the way reverbtails sound when they fade out into the noise from the acoustic environment or analog recording equipment, as opposed to the digital noise of having too few bits for your recording.

Ive been talking to fellow tapers about this and this is what they think:http://taperssection.com/index.php/topic,78249.0.html
They were just a couple experimental bits preglow and I made up to prove things out - flanger and ring mod.
Surely at some point I'll confirm its possibility for starters but preglow's got me on this waveform synthesizer trip now...(snip)
mlind:Not too much really. It's probably not even worth the trouble unless S/PDIF can actually send more than 16 bits/sample. Using it with the ADC would be pretty much pointless.
