Chuckle. I have to disagree a wee bit Fons, you under-estimate the

Lots of card claim 24 bit, but a monotonicity check will often fail before
the 14th bit has been fully tested.

Thanks for quantifying this for me. Between the
crazy audiophile
forums and my lack of experience in this field, it's not always easy
to keep track of how much is good enough, and what is just crazy

Be very careful with what you read on 'audiophile' forums. 99% of the
high-end audio business is based on ignorance and hype these days.
