Yes, but I try to explain that the Stratocaster became successful by some musicians, e.g. Jimi Hendrix and I'm sure every guitarist would notice, if Hendrix would play a Flying V, the guitar Hendrix preferred, but never or seldom used on recordings. If you would make an ABX test people wouldn't notice differences that are audible, even if those differences are different instruments. Btw. it's not always possible to hear the difference between a single coil and a humbucker, but for the averaged Hendrix sound it would be noticeable. What I want to point out is, that those tests are null and void, people without experiences don't listen to single instrument lines, so they won't notice missing early reflections for a hi hat or something similar, caused by a codec. Experienced people will hear a difference. > Your car can probably do 140 mph even though you never go that fast. > Being able to use the card in 192 kHz probably doesn't cost that much > extra for the manufacturer and I guess the marketing department really > loves being able to use it in the advertising.
