In Reply to: RE: Test with 24/96 vs. 16/44 LITTLE TO NO DIFFERENCE. posted by Archimago on February 13, 2010 at 09:00:59
The stock EMU 0404 jitter is pretty high. I have one. Could be masking the difference easily.
Follow Ups:
Would the jitter be any better with the coax or optical inputs?
Has anyone measured the jitter rate?
Probably better with the Coax output, but you must use a good cable as well.
The reason that I know the jitter is high is that when I use it with a Pace-Car reclocker the difference is night and day. The difference is strictly jitter, nothing else.
Measuring jitter is another matter. You would need a dynamic spectral response, with and without signal, and the signal must not be just a single tone. This results in a series of plots. Even this thorough jitter analysis is only good for comparisons between clocks and devices. It tells you little about how it will sound. Only the ear can tell this.

That is correct. the jitter is pretty high, as well as the signal to noise ratio. Hard to believe its claim for 24/96, with SN ratios where they are.
