[snip] I am sorry, but all the above said can be summarized in very few sentences: 1) any phase/frequency modulation produces a signal with infinite spectrum; 2) analog recordings additionally have jitter due to tape elasticity and surface imperfections - has anyone ever observed analog taper recorder signal using an oscilloscope ? - I have; 3) one may argue about similarities and differences of spectra produced by analog era and digital era jitter; 4) any high end digital receiver should have a PLL-based receiver that resamples (with the same frequency) input signal end eliminates jitter - rather, the jitter becomes the one of the PLL; 5) from my experience the decisive factor nowadays is analog circuitry in the power amplifier and speakers, not digital jitter.
