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

RE: Jitter

Tape hiss is obvious and constant. Any time distortion (digital jitter, wow, flutter) can be perceived only as an interaction between the recording and the playback timing. This makes recognition of low level time distortion difficult and inconsistent. The situation is not unlike that with wow and flutter in LP and tape. There are some subtle tape distortions such as scrape flutter that many audiophiles won't recognize and identify unless they are at high levels.
