I stand by my claim. The Benchmark doesn't eliminate jitter. It's a marketing claim. If it is fed a jittery signal, there are methods for improving the result, but the jitter isn't "eliminated". In real life there isn't digital audio with NO jitter. Low jitter, yes. NO jitter, sorry. http://www.head-fi.org/t/465286/does-the-benchmark-dac1-or-any-dac-eliminate-all-jitter http://www.computeraudiophile.com/content/Reclocking-DAC-immune-transport-jitter -- firedog GIK Acoustics Room Treatments.
