   You mean real Audiophools :-)   
   However at least better DAC's still work well with 16 bit files, even if   
   NONE can deliver better than true 24 bit resolution in our universe, and I   
   know of no normal home that can really use more than true 16 bit (96dB) DNR,   
   or anybody that normally listens to music in a sound proof isolation booth   
   on a regular basis. And lets not even consider how many actual recordings   
   even *remotely* approach 16 bit DNR to begin with!
