Yeah, and SPDIF carries the data to overcome it. It is not a matter of the protocol, it's a matter of implementation. And that's why DACs have an input buffer. Jitter at the SPDIF layer should not be an unsurmountable issue. But no one disputes it can be an issue with a flawed design. # It can have a dramatic and easily audible effect It can. With a well implemented design it shouldn't. Someone else out there can tell us whether the good DAC chipes have an input buffer or not to avoid starvation. Basic voice communication codecs from 10 years ago did, so I am pretty sure DAC designers would take starvation issues into account. # I suggest you do some research before posting again Thanks. I suggest you provide useful information instead of just going ad hominem, because I haven't seen you make a point. -- pablolie ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pablolie's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3816 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=33146
