I'll be impressed if I ever see some numbers/graphs! :-) Isn't that Steve Nugent, of Empirical Audio? I've had a run-in with him in the past. His main claim to fame seems to be that he was part of the team that designed the Intel Pentium CPU.
It seems that he has concluded that his knowledge of how ultra-high speed signals work inside CPUs is in some way relevant to the mickey-mouse data rates used in audio, and has built a business out of "fixing" the clocks in DACs and hawking boxes that "clean up" the jitter in digital signals. I just can't see the connection myself. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cliveb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=348 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98630 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
