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

RE: No revolutions

Thanks for the response.

Hi res PCM vs DSD.

One tenth of an octave (20 to 22kHz) would require one hell of a brickwall filter. JA mentioned in another post that DSD provides an improvement over PCM in time domain errors. I suppose that could be called a form of linearity. Nelson Pass published a paper that has some graphs showing how steep filters for speakers obliterate the phase coherence of a speaker. My limited knowledge leads me to think that phase and time domain response are probably closely tied? Your opinion? I have used both gentle and extreme slopes with speakers, and neither is perfect or perfectly terrible. Just different with different tradeoffs.

Thanks again for answering my basic questions.
