- From the A4K Hardware Guide:

- "According to Scott Hood, the designer of the A2320, it samples 12 bits

- information probably isn't in version 3.0.)

- More information on this topic is found in the A4000 Hardware Guide,
- which is available from your favorite Aminet ftp site. The archive
- is in the hard/misc directory, and is called a4khard_v3.lha.
