I don't know whether I'm misunderstanding what these numbers mean but something doesn't make sense. The majority of high resolution audio is either 96 kHz or 192 kHz. The top end frequencies of most popular amplifiers seems to be 50 kHz - 70 kHz with one or two designed to 100 kHz. Most loudspeakers seem to have top frequencies in the region of 25 kHz - 30 kHz. Surely this means that buying 192 kHz tracks over 96 kHz track is pointless as the vast majority of equipment couldn't handle those frequencies anyway?
Yes and I realise that human hearing is only usually up to 20 something kHz at best (I can guarantee that someone will still mention this)!
