RE: 'Ultra-low jitter in my book is 10's of picoseconds, not 1nsec'

Posted by maabx on March 21, 2008 at 07:14:22:
Steve, I realize that raw jitter numbers expressed in ps or ns mean nothing out of context. But, in your opinion, can you state what you believe to be the threshold level, above which, jitter can become audible? I don't mind if you want to put it into context, or whether it is stated in ps, ns or ppm. And I realize there have been studies on the matter. And that the studies are not consistent. But what is your opinion? I don't feel like I can hear jitter in my current setup, as I've heard it described many times.
