Not necessarily. Just because a DAC sounds different does not necessarily mean jitter is involved... every DAC has a slightly different filtering circuit after the DAC and a slightly different analogue output stage and so will have a signature sound of its own. DAC's are no different to any other source component - they all have their own "take" on what the output should sound like. -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...
