They only got a 1 mHz bandwidth ? Thst's not even enough for high quality digital audio. Digital audio yes, but not really good digital audio.
A 1mHz bandwidth ignores stuff that changes over periods shorter than 16.67 minutes. That's not audio.
If you meant 1 MHz, even bats can't hear stuff over about 70kHz. "Really good digital audio" would then have to be digital audio designed to appeal to audiophools.

I can't believe this.
You think you only ned 44,100 Hz bandwidth to record 44,100 Hz audio ?
Really ?
Why don't you stick a scope on the output of a CD player lens and get back to us.
Hold on, have I f***ed this up ? Sounds like you take mHz as millihertz ?
That's not what I meant. I am going to have to look into this, I may have been expressing that wrong. I meant megahertz.
Problem stems from the fact that I finally realized that in an abbreviation like that the "H" should be capitalised. Turns out the "M" has to be as well or people will think it's millihertz.
Anyway, so what is the purpose of these things ? That bandwidth really isan't much these days. Which was my point in the first place.
Correctly. mHz means milliHertz, MHz means MegaHertz
And it was a truly ignorant point, as we'd expect from you.

Yeah well it looks like you are not quite on the MENSA headhunters list eirther there dude.
You may not think so, but I doubt if you are speaking from personal experience.
