Well, you have two seemingly contrary statements: a) something non-measurable and b) scientific proof. Assuming the "proof" comes along with measurements than somewhere along the line those self-same engineers or some other ones figured out how to measure the phenomena that was originally dismissed. This is not unusual in science (I speak from experience on this one). Of course, I presented some evidence above that only very large amounts of jitter were audible to people, and you seemed to dismiss those results. Ok, so maybe the differences *you* hear are not due to jitter, but unless you or those with similar claims present some evidence that your findings are real (eg through DBT), why should we trust *your* ears? Should we just take it on faith? -- ezkcdude There are 10 kind of people in the world - those who understand binary and those who don't.
