Yep, understand completely and have fun <smile>

The Zoom H1 of course supports these standards along with the new Sound Device 
I bought for my Windows/Mac machines which I outlined some time ago.

The Rotel DAC I use in my Den system supports these high sampling rates along 
with the Denon AVR-2113 in the lounge etc so thankfully 192K/24 is very much 
the standard thing now.

As for the DAT recorder? I still have two, the Tascam is a truly excellent 
recorder though transport is slow.

The Sony records well but the in-built DAC'S for that machine are nothing short 
of terrible so best to play it through an external DAC.
