i have not claimed the extracted signal is always accurate, or that errors aren't possible. but the fact the encoded signal is digital makes it more resilient, it's one of the whole friggin' advantages of digital data, foe heavens sake. that's telecom 101. that and nothing else has been my point. since the analog signal quality can vary more without affecting the data integrity an ounce, as would be the case with a total analog transmission. that is and has been my point. and not sure where you heard me claim the analog signal has or is supposed to have square edges. and if you're trying to claim you need a perfectly clean signal to extract clocking information... well, really. time's too precious. arrogance blends more credibly without blatant reading comprehension issues. -- pablolie ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pablolie's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3816 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=33146 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
