So in summary, the digital (network) link between the PC and SB2 and the digital link from SB2 to DAC both suffer from jitter, however in the PC/SB2 link the network speed and protocols allow errors to be identified and corrected. The approach taken for identifying and correcting errors in the SB2/DAC stream means that errors reduce audio quality.
No, not quite. Jitter is not an issue in the PC->SB2 link. You can pretty much do what you like in the digital domain because bits are bits. It's only when you start converting them back into analogue domain that the timing information becomes critical and jitter becomes an issue.
