True, but we are arguing about terms. "Jitter" by its nature has to do with time and, obviously, we can not discuss it in absence of a receiver. I simply preferred to avoid this "J" word - there is a neighboring thread that uses and abuses it plenty. To sum it up, I'd be surprised if a firmware update could affect ANY characteristics of SB or DUET S/PDIF out, but I guess only its designers can rule out this possibility completely. -- pryamomimo ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pryamomimo's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21964 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=56591 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
