Re: Noise floor vs. uncorrelated noise

thanks for the correction vis--vis noise floors, that said the principle here is noise decorrelation, if the noise is decorrelated then a signal may be retrieved, the principle applies to both analog and digital alike, or is there any reason why analogue is unique?

"Ever listened to analog tape? There is a constant hiss from the tape mechanism. This is the tape noise floor. Now you can easily hear sounds that are softer than the tape hiss, can you not?"

tape noise, groove noise, dithered noise, birds of the same feather but different applications, you simply repeated what I said in the post you responded to :o, aren't both groove noise or tape hiss simply different types of uncorrelated noise.

I will ignore the off-topic point on negative feedback.
