It does not limit it to 16b
24b works great on OS X...assuming the device is properly USB Audio class compliant and it's descriptors/streaming properly stream 24b

I do not know if the iMic does/doesn't work properly 24b, but many USB audio devices out there do.

Specifically, is the claim that OS X limits the resolution of USB audio devices to 16 bits correct?  I need to be able to answer a question from a customer about this.
 
Many thanks - Paul Sanders.
