[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8516607, member: 650438"] yes you will. So just to give you a bit of what its like. I had an onkyo tx 616 reciever that has 32 bit DACs and some dayton b652 air speakers. I got an onkyo 606 which is one line below with a 24 bit processor for my dad but before that I did a direct swap. Volume levels were fine but it felt like there was a wet towel over my speakers, clarity and detail was lost dramatically. This is tested with both spotify 128kbps, 320kbps files and flac. IF you dont have an audiophile ear, then dont worry. Most average people dont hear any differences in detail. However if you listen to your music seriously, There's a huge jump. Most of the times with the processing, they do not override the previous signal from the head unit which still is mainly an analog signal. If the processor can override that, You will feel the full force of 32bit processing at its finest. Keep in mind your files and ACTUAL components grades of processing are two different things.
