But the jitter of the SB3 output is already pretty low - very probably beneath the threshold of audibility. Jitter gets trotted out as the explanation for everything these days, and I just don't buy it.
It seems much more likely that things like grounding issues and/or the effects of radiated EMI on analogue circuitry are behind these differences. (For example, we all know that the SB3's wall-wart sprays RFI all over the place: that could plausibly disturb the circuitry in nearby components). -- cliveb Transporter -> ATC SCM100A ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cliveb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=348 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=76895 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
