Also remember that CD quality is 16 bit, although 24 bit sounds better, the signal will be burnt to a CD after either truncation and dithering down to 16 bit. Relative to 16 bit 24 bit also takes up twice as much disk space.

However, if you really want to get into audiophile land hi end machines will do 24 bit recording at a 96 KHz sampling rate. This is the direction I will move in once I am rich and famous!
