Why 96 KHz? 48 KHz doesn't cause any issues, but already provides best
sound quality.

That I think is a personal call Ralf, primarily because at 48 Khz, your
anti-aliasing filters had better be very very good brick walls by the time
you get above 24Khz in input content

Can anyone point out a commercially available microphone used in the audio recording domain which will actually pic frequencies above 20 kHz?

Likewise can anyone point out any commercially available speaker used in the audio reproduction domain which will actually reproduce frequencies above 20 kHz?

If the audio produced is made for fruition of humans it makes absolutely no sense to try and capture or reproduce anything above 20kHz, and for average individuals 15kHz would probably more than enough.

And in case anyone is tempted to state that even if we don't hear them frequencies above 20kHz influence the way we hear or 'perceive' music, please also attach any _scientific_ study/paper/evidence (e.g. large-scale blind tests etc. not anecdotal evidence) to such statement.
