Hi all,
This article is making its way around engineering circles (and others):
http://m.phys.org/news/2013-02-human-fourier-uncertainty-principle.html
Finally some empirical evidence that we are not all crazy and we can actually hear beyond 20kHz. I have always said that while it is difficult to hear audio outside the 20Hz to 20kHz range, we can perceive it. Production and engineering are by far the most important when it comes to perceived sound quality, but it is clear that redbook (16bit/44kHz) just doesn't cut it. Long live high resolution digital audio!
