Hi Julf! I haven't got far enough through my electronics theory textbook to take issue with this. So far I've learnt that you can regard a square wave in terms of the fundamental frequency sine wave + an infinite number of odd harmonic frequency sine waves each at a defined amplitude. And that for an acceptable working approximation you need to go as far as the 9th odd harmonic. This may explain why I'm personally not partial to the sound of square waves. I've also learned that you can analyse any complex waveform into an equivalent set of sine waves using Fourier Transforms but the ability to do this on the fly may be compromised by lower frequencies and shorter durations of said waveform. Give me a minute, I'm catching up steadily :cool: Dave :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Golden Earring's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=66646 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106519 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
