The point is, that whether on not the whole of the length of the interconnect is at the same potential for much of the time, some of the time, some of the interconnect will be at one potential and the rest at another - and that's the point that's interesting with respect to jitter. -- Patrick Dixon www.at-tunes.co.uk ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Patrick Dixon's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=90 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=34406 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
