John,
The 8K difference is the 193 bit that is used for framing.
The physical speed  of the a DS1 (T1 is an electrical specification)  
is 1,544,000 including the bits used for  framing (sf twelve frames  
or  esf 24 frames)  so 192 bit a sec (one frame) * 8000 frames a  
second = 1,536,000.  With the framing bit he equation is 193 * 8000  -  
1,544,00
8000 sample per  second comes from nyquists theorem that state the   
min sampling rate for analog  to  digital conversion is 2 * the  
frequency.  For historical reasons telcos sampled at a max voice rate   
of 4khz
