No I did a quick read of one of the post on the blog jsrheta linked to http://archimago.blogspot.com/2014/06/24-bit-vs-16-bit-audio-test-part-ii.htmlAre you referring to the Bob Stuart study? I consider the methodology of that study to be flawed due to the authors' decision to use rectangular dither, and I'm not aware of any other studies that have given similar positive results (but am open to it if you know of any?).
Haven't looked into if it was a good test. Just mentioned my take/opinion on the argument mentioned there against 24-bit.
Btw, pretty sure that if one has a very dynamic capable system playing at 100dB SPL with very dynamic music (preferably not real recorded due to the high noise floor) that the 16-bit dither floor should be audible in a dead room. I have no problem hearing the (recording microphone) noise floor on most acoustic recordings on my current substandard system and I'm not even in a dead room right now.
