Arthur, Joe's analysis is right on target. Don't worry about theoretical advantages which no human being can actually hear. Many DVD-As(including the DD and/or DTS tracks on them)and SACDs sound better, but that appears to be due to better mixing and mastering(aside from the possibility of surround channels), not higher sampling rates or bits. The 16 bit/44.1KHz standard for CDs is ample for the limits of our ears and the dynamic range of the material which is recorded. Enjoy your speakers and don't waste your money.
