Audio Sample Rates Debate
Discussions center on the Nyquist-Shannon sampling theorem, the sufficiency of 44.1kHz sample rates for human hearing versus higher rates like 192kHz, and issues like aliasing, anti-aliasing filters, and oversampling.

Hint: 44100 Hz is plenty to exceed any human's perceptual resolution.
not really. it's just an admission that sampling frequency matters.
Just higher than 80Hz should be enough via Nyquist's theorem, or no?
Nyquist frequency applies here too?
Lots of devices which sample at 96kHz still have a 20kHz roll off filter :-(
You failed to understand Claude Shannon. Look up "aliasing distortion".
You should be ok as long as you keep it bellow the nyquist freq.
Why would the sample rate be below 10 kHz?
They're both fine (as long as the source is band limited to 20khz which it should be anyway).
It seems that the Nyquist-Shannon sampling rate would be too low for the results to be accurate.
