Technical and scientific discussion of amps, cables and other topics.

Re: That's part of the equation

If you knew anything about cables, you'd know that timing or phase response is directly related to amplitude frequency response in wires and many electronic circuits.

"The same is true of CD players. That's what jitter is all about. The timing of those digits marching through the system."

I've debunked Jon Risch's bullshit about digital jitter in cd players and wires many times. The jist of it is that the jitter in the mechanical system rotating the disc is ALWAYS thousands of times worse than anything a cable introduces. The problem is solved by reclocking in buffer storage registers. If that weren't done, the system couldn't work because the storage registers would either become depleted or they would overfill and distort very badly. So then he argued that there is "fast jitter" and "slow jitter." What a bunch of crap he always keeps up his sleeve for when he loses an arguement.
