Thanks John, very informative reply and definitely not boring. It simply raises few other questions.
If the recovered jittery clock drives the DA conversion in the receiver sure, jitter can and will lead to non-perfect waveform. I would naively think that DAC's would do something better to be immune to bit-by-bit jitter? For USB, it is still packets that get send out and not bit-by-bit stream, so jitter of the USB sender/bus/cable shouln't be a problem because the digital stream must be clocked on the receiver to convert packet chunks into something usable?
