I used to decode MP3s to aiff (Stephane TAVENARD`s mpega player cli-command), and then playback the aiff sample with 14bit calibrated Paula (Thomas Wenzel`s Play16) to a MiniDisk recorder. I had only a 030@25 with FPU, but I wanted to listen the songs at the maximum quality.
There are limits to S/N ratio and dynamic range, plus you may notice a noise (trashing bits?!) at the ending of a song (low volume). I used the CyberSound to calibrate the output.
Listening the recording is acceptable, but if you instantly listen the original, then the difference is great.
