Well, first, I believe Tony was asking for the physical/electrical process involved.
Second, before you diss someone's system, should you not at LEAST hear it?
Third, I suspect that your experience and Fred's stem from ignoring EE101 and basic physics and thus not fixing glaring, totally brutal "you are f..ked" level problems and trying to put sticky tape over the stable doors after not only the hoses have bolted but after the stable boys burned them down plus the barn and the Masters house and joined the revolution!
A little sticky tape will fix it. No need to actually understand what is going on.
And as a result finding that that any change (including a fly farting at 20' outside your window) changes the sound of the system, which is of course precisely what I would predict.
Fourth, have fun and ignore the man behind the curtain. It does not actually matter.

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?
