I decided to experiment. I've got a daddy:
Reap with vinyl “Adele – 21”, as seen by name. Translated from FLAC -> WAV (96 kHz 24bit), and then transferred to iTunes in the ALAC. The quality of the track remains the same, It was as WAV. Since Apple Lossless encoder has no settings, he chose automatically. Well, as it should be, Sync with iTunes told me, that the iPhone will not play this format. Yes I Am, as I expected, but it was worth a try.
The second experiment was a success. Translated from FLAC-> WAV (48kHz 24 bit), and then to the ALAC. File has turned out such:
And he burst successfully reproduced on the iPhone and a standard player.
It's a good news, surely. aydevaysy able to play audio, encoded 24 bit, but with the restriction of the sampling frequency to 48000 kHz. But it still does not matter. importantly, that supports decoding 24 bit. This means, the sound will be much higher quality, if you encode 24 bits (Now it means for recording information about the sound waves have 3 byte, but not 2 as for 16 bit. Can, it is not so much, but 8 spare cells — it is still a good idea)
