If the jitter spectrum is peaked at some frequency, its effect is to add
anharmonic sidebands at that frequency.  In other words, if you have a
1kHz signal with 100 Hz jitter, the resulting analog signal will have a
big peak at 1kHz (the signal) plus smaller peaks at 900 and 1100 Hz (the
distortion induced by the jitter).  Since those sidebands are not
harmonically related to 1khZ, they sound terrible - if they're big
enough to be audible.
