There are many papers and reports published by the IEEE, AES and
various pro-audio communities and companies that provide more than
enough reading matter on this topic to satisfy all.  There are also
many online communities that support debates on audio quality issues
(bit depth, sample rates, directional speakers cables, gold-plated
fuses, etc).  Synth-diy is primarily for folks who design and build
music synthesizers.

Congratulations.
