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

Referring to the block diagram I previously linked to, I guess what you are saying is that there is NO WAY to make the master clock immune to jitter on the incoming data signal, and that it is this transfer of jitter that causes various transports to sound different.

And I guess what I am saying is that it IS possible to make that master clock be totally immune to jitter on the incoming data signal. And that furthermore, we would still be able to hear the differences between transports because there is some other factor involved besides simple jitter.

I can't really think of a way to test either theory. All I can say is that whenever I found a really good way to test things that didn't make any sense whatsoever, they still made a difference. To the point that I'm pretty sure that are *lots* of things we still don't understand. Hence my original statement that I wish the "answer" was as simple as "jitter".

Thanks for keeping things civil!

Cheers,
