RE: Very good question.- and a non answer

They were at CES because they had a prototype dac which they wanted to see if there was any interest in it. The demo consisted of a digital 1000hz signal that they sent to a dac (not there dac) over a 30 meter Ethernet cable. At the output of the dac they filtered out the 1000hz signal leaving a bunch of squealing sounds and tones which were very audible. The gentleman from Prism said that was the sound of cable induced jitter.
He said there can be jitter in the original recording, cable induced jitter and jitter caused by the dac.
