    This is a doc on about getting better sound from the AMIGA (14bit!) 
and full quality audio from MPEG3 files on slow CPUs.


    Requirements:

    * For getting 14 bit audio
    ***************************

        - 14Bit_CDPlayer.lha (Aminet: disk/cdrom)

        - Play16             (Aminet:mus/play/)     - recommended

        - Any CPU     (i'm not really sure if a 68000 can fed data quickly
                         enough for 44Khz audio ... report me it, please)

        - OS2.0              (required for mounting Monitor drivers needed
                                   to audio output frequencies > 28khz)
        - ECS

        - A HD is handy ...


    * For mp3 decoding
    *******************

        - mpega.lha           (Aminet:mus/play)

        - at least a 68020 CPU (for the above ...)

        - Consider seriously to get an HD 8)
