This really isn't about bits, or the fact that computer networks work at higher data rates - that precisely misses the point, actually. The issue arises because digital audio transmits data isynchronously, unlike a computer network. That makes things much trickier. If you don't believe this, an very good paper on the subject is here: http://www.stereophile.com/reference/1093jitter/index.html But (as I said before) this has nothing to do with the original topic anyway. -- opaqueice ------------------------------------------------------------------------ opaqueice's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4234 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=21700 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
