By the time SACD is converted to something we can listen to, it's equivalent to 20-bit at something more than 40 kHz. So, before we all go converting the Nyquist frequency for the claimed 24 MHz sampling rate, it would be helpful to know the bit depth. I've designed with DAC chips that are rated to 125 MHz, but that one is only 14-bit.

... which is two bits more than you need for broadcast-quality audio.
