The above statement refers specifically to the numbers in the example given in the text. If one chose the right numbers one could make them related, see the formula in Footnote 5 of the article. However, I agree that it is hard to believe that specific frequencies will be systematically affected at all times for any music in a particular system ... BTW take a look at the dcs AES paper on the subjective effects of high sample rates and bit depths, can time smear really explain the perceived bass benefits of increased sample rates ...? At the end of the day, audio, like anything else involving the senses, is too subjective for absolute statements :-O But, as a scientist, it's fun trying to find explanations ... :-) -- reeve_mike ------------------------------------------------------------------------ reeve_mike's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=995 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=24670 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
