I just want people who pretend to be scientific to take themselves seriously enough that if somebody says "Your headphones suck" that they say "do they? Why?"

I just want people who pretend to be scientific to take themselves seriously enough that if somebody says "Your headphones suck" that they say "do they? Why?" That article is better :) 192 is silly pretty much always, 24 bits isn't very useful for playback, but a music player with better digital-to-analog converters and a better amplification stage than an iPhone? That should make a difference. An iPhone does ten million things, there should be a way to make a better music player that only does one. (edit: now that I think about it 24 bits could be useful for playback.)
