  2. Audio bit depth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_bit_depth

    Therefore, 16-bit digital audio found on CDs has a theoretical maximum SNR of 98 dB, and professional 24-bit digital audio tops out as 146 dB. As of 2011 [update] , digital audio converter technology is limited to an SNR of about 123 dB [ 12 ] [ 13 ] [ 14 ] ( effectively 21 bits) because of real-world limitations in integrated circuit design.

    In this format, the first two bytes specify a 16-bit integer representing the numbers 1 or 2. Programs supporting audio files with the .snd extension generally assume, and check, that it is NeXT/SUN (AU) format. Electronic music instrument manufacturer Akai had an audio file format with the extension .snd. [1]
