I don't find the difference between 16 and 24 bits to be subtle at
all.  It's certainly not as dramatic as the difference between 8 and 16,
but for me it's the sonic equivalent of "good" vs. "great." And I felt that
way with my first 24 bit experience, which was moving from the mediocre 16
bit converters in a CardD plus to the mediocre 24 bit converters in a
Frontier Tango 24.
