 From what I've read (in TapeOp) it seems like dithering is really the 
key to the 24 -> 16 conversion.  People pay good money for proper 
dithering noise I guess.

I have just been toying around with recording from my Stanton str8-80 
(not really audiophile) which has a 44100 digital out to a hoontech xg 
(ymfpci).  It seemed to work rather well, but I'm all about streamlining 
the process as far as track chopping, etc.  I was just using snd, but I 
may look into gnome wave cleaner (especially for dirtier/older records).
