192khz .. playback fidelity lower than 44.1khz?

[Andrew Robinson]

I was talking about this with a studio owner a few years back. After a
heavy session on A/B testing the first few 24/96 converters on the
market, he'd come to the opinion that after 20 years of practice, the
industry had got very good at making good sounding 16/44.1 kit, and
that the 24/96 stuff needed a good few years to get up to speed. He
could definitely tell the difference, but he didn't like it, comparing
it to the awful high-end heavy mastering on the earliest CDs.
