Hi Pos, A good question. I really don't know. I suspect that the accuracy is going to be a function of the sample and bit rate. When I do lp to digits I usually use 24/96 or 24/192. The files are stored as wavs. I have used a Moon LP3 phono preamp to enter the audio for encoding and on other occasions gone direct and used the filter in Audacity to "play" them back. It is actually hard to tell the difference. I would assume there is some but more ears are no longer that "golden". Considering that the best S/N from a really clean LP and good cartridge is in the 75dbv range. I suspect that the difference in way the music is processed is kind of a moot point. If anyone out there has done some definitive testing on this I would like to hear about the results.
