Re:24/192 Music Downloads Are Very Silly Indeed (2012) by quakenul on Thursday August 31, 2017 @09:46AM (#15140227)
It is entirely silly. The believe that there is causation between a high fidelity, high dynamic range release and 24/192 is exactly the issue.

Yes, those high dynamic range releases usually get published in 24/192. No, the fact that they get published in 24/192 does not, as far as human hearing goes, add anything to the dynamic range or otherwise the fidelity of the recording.

Since the correlation is so strong, it is of course entirely understandable that people assume causation exists.
