DVD-A:
      sampling rate(kHz)  bit resolution  channels
LPCM                 192        16,20,24         2
                   176.4            "            2
<                     96            "          1-6 >
                    88.2            "           "
                      48            "           "
                    44.1            "           "
MLP                   96            "           "  (lossless compression)
Dolby Digital         48            "           "
DTS                48/96            "           "

SACD:
DSD           2.8224 MHz            1            ?
(direct stream digital)
They claim that frequency span is 0 to 100 kHz, and that dynamics in
hearing part is 120dB...
