Audio-stuff: Pono discussion

An article in German about Neil’s new media player, lossless digitalizing, close to what he had in mind with the late Apple-Steve-Jobs:

“Pono”: Neil Young will iTunes & Co. audiophile Konkurrenz machen
on Heise.de

In essence:

Pono = 24 Bit/96 kHz or even 24 Bit/192 kHz lossless coding.

“Unfortunately, there is no point to distributing music in 24-bit/192kHz format. Its playback fidelity is slightly inferior to 16/44.1 or 16/48, and it takes up 6 times the space.”

Well, maybe technicians hear other stuff than musicians…
