The Optimal Sample Rate for Quality Audio


Recommended Posts

Due to filter ringing features, I've defined optimal sampling rate such where:

- you can fit anti-alias/imaging filter's impulse response into half-wave of 20 kHz sine

- frequency response in pass-band must be within 0.01 dB

- phase reponse in pass-band must be within 1 degree

- final re-constructed analog signal must also have all alias/images attenuated at least by 144 dBFS

 

So what figures does that give us in practice?
