Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

RE: "mains related side-bands which are NOT jitter"

Hi,

Jitter is clock related.

These side-bands with a fair bit of certainty (if not 100%) do not come through clock contamination, but from simple analogue noise.

So they are not jitter in the literal sense of the word.

Unless we re-define "Jitter" to mean "any noise from any source", in which case we no longer need to treat jitter separately and instead can subsume it under THD&N...

At 20 bits, you are on the verge of dynamic range covering fly-farts-at-20-feet to intolerable pain. Really, what more could we need?
