Since the Amiga audio hardware has an 8-bit DAC plus 6 bits of volume
for each audio voice, it should be trivial to play 14-bit samples.  Using
Audio interrupts, you can feed audio data and volume right to the DACs
(it would use a lot of CPU on a 68000).  Using another feature of the 
hardware, you can have the output of one channel modulate the volume of
another.  So it looks like you can use DMA to do 2 channels of 14-bit
sound.

Any feedback?
