"Such fine detail, however, can get lost from the source at *any* stage. ;)"That is incorrect for digital systems.
The byte or word is either right or it's wrong. It's a number representing an analog voltage sample in the CONTEXT we are discussing. And as far as conversion back to analog, in the system area we are discussing that can't happen. The value represented by the 16bit word is either correct or wrong. And errors are random, It's not like there is a long string of errors that is altering the data in the exact fashion you suggest. Ok under very, very, very large odds it could happen, but realistically no. And certainly not across different digital content.

The moderators feel that allowing this thread to continue, even though it may hold useful information, will wind up creating more trouble than it solves, and thereby detract from the purpose of this forum.This is not the appropriate venue for discussion of this matter, and we ask that those with an interest in the subject, take it elsewhere (e.g. private e-mail).
No further follow-ups will be considered.
