Getting off topic, but 192 ksps?? I can't hear anything over 10 kHz (I am admittedly not a spring chicken anymore). I'd be willing to wager that less than 1% of the population can reliably hear the difference between a 320 kbps MP3 and those HD formats in a proper double blind study. No doubt somebody has already done the study.

Edit: One study (not FLAC)
