24/96 or 24/192


Hi everybody I am 90% ready buy a Cary 303 cdp. The only thing holding me back is that it does not have the 24/192 upsampling.A friend of mine feels thier is no real difference and that I should make my choice on other factors. Any thoughts Thanks

If you're onto listening regular CDs -- there should not be any difference except that extra oversampling will "forgive" most of badly recorded CDs and make them sound nicer than they have to.
If you will get a collection of video format CDs than 24/192 wins.
I've auditioned Cary CD303 with remastered Dire Straits "Love Over Gold" CD and it reminded me my J.A.Michell -- so analogue-like and soft!
