Maybe the tax example is a good one, perhaps we could say that noise is just in the loose change, and the music is in the greenbacks.
Of course I was trying to make a point simple by cherry picking a specific example. Maybe it was a bad example. Timothy, I really do not understand what you are trying to get at with your points about asymmetric waveforms. Binary zero equates to zero amplitude, theoretical silence, the crossover point for a simple sine wave. This doesn't change, neither does the number of amplitude points between zero and maximum positive, and zero and maximum negative. Surely then, an asymmetric waveform simply goes from, for example, full positive amplitude to only half negative amplitude. Overall resolution in this case would be 3/4 of the max. -- bigfool1956 David Ayers Music is what counts, hifi just helps us enjoy it more ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bigfool1956's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13782 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=45107 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
