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

RE: Totally Right


First off I2S is an internal protocol. People linking up I2S externally do not have have a good system. It was never intended to do more than a few inches... why would cables make it better.

Come on now, how could you say that? Its common knowledge even by YOU that IS2 is a preferred method of transfer and cables can be acquired up to 2 meters [see PS Audio] but of course you know that. IS2 has the least amount of jitter in fact some say its jitter free.

Firewire jitter is off the charts.

Could this be why so many Professional companies use Firewire? Companies and recording studios that spend millions of dollars on systems opting for Firewire products. Could it be that Weiss and others have it all wrong?

XLR, tell me how an XLR can be 110 ohms? SPDIF has tons of jitter as it is part of the protocol.

So you are saying that, for example Mogami, AudioQeust and other are doing false advertising when they claim to have a 110 ohm XLR cable?

If you have an ASYNC system then the quality of the clock is a direct relationship to the quality of the system. Therefore you can do a ton better with a well executed Asynchronous USB system compared to any Firewire or SPDIF...

Many preachers come to believe what they preach after awhile no matter how ridiculous it sounds.

WHY??? Because your not fixing jitter. Any SPDIF, Adapative USB or Firewire system you look at is touting some jitter new fix it thing. With Asynchronous USB you don't have to fix what isn't there. This keeps the intrinsic jitter on a new level and that is why it works so well.

So you are saying that the Antelope Audio Isochrone 10M "Atomic Clock" which is not asynch USB btw has jitter problems? Come on now....
