Hi guys,
I am new to computer audio system. I am digitalizing my audio system and ripping my CDs and saving these at NAS. I am using SONOS music server. It works fine. But, I have never listen to music recorded at 24 bit. Many people say that the sound of 24 bit music is totally different from that of 16 bit music. I want to download 24 bit classical music and compare 16 bits music. Can anybody let me know where I can download free-trial 24 bit music. Thanks,
SSS

Look to your left. Click on "Music" and look at the choices.
MacBook Pro Laptop / Drobo / Amarra / Ayre QB-9 / Control w/ another MacBook Pro (screen sharing) or iPhone w/ "Remote."
You may not find the sound TOTALLY different. Actually, in my experience the difference at first appears subtle if we're talking 16 bit, 44.1 kHz vs. 24 bit, 44.1 kHz. But it's an important difference. 24 bit allows you to perceive the recording venue better, and first and foremost, it is more musically involving ... Just don't expect the difference to jump in your face ...
PC -> Squeezebox Duet with Bolder Cables Power Supply -> Toslink (yes, sounds better than coax) -> EmmLabs DAC2 ->2 x Pathos Classic 1 mk III (bridged) -> Verity Fidelio Encore

Thank you for your reply.
I have another question. I can set up for 24 bits in my DAC. But, I use Sonos music server. I called Sonos. They said that Sonos sets up only for 16 bit. Should I need another server which sets up for 24 bit?
