I really don't see how oversampling would matter to you at all. It is a technique used in designing D/A convertors to make the anti-aliasing filter requirements easier to implement. (as the link you gave explains). It doesn't mean anything to the user. It doesn't even mean much to an engineer designing with a given D/A convertor part since the filters are usually integrated. The anti-alias filter characteristics are the important thing to care about. Oversampling doesn't guarantee that the anti-alias filter is good or bad, and if oversampling is not used you can still get equally good audio results with higher order filters. It really doesn't tell you anything by itself. Companies list oversampling in audio specs because it sounds good to most people who are clueless as to what it means, but really it's just bullshit. kim At 02:29 PM 6/23/2004, Jesse Ray Lucas wrote: >Curious.
