[QUOTE="Now Playing, post: 351135, member: 2381"] Nothing, as is nicely explained here: http://davidkessner.wordpress.com/2011/10/27/a-pragmatic-approach-to-jitter-in-digital-audio/ Here's the exec summary: [b]Conclusion[/b] Saying that ?jitter in the femtosecond range is audible? is laughable at best. Jitter of 1 ps is barely measurable in the audio data. Jitter of 2 ns is easy to achieve but most equipment is better than that. Before worrying about 2 ns of jitter, you need to remove the other sources of ?jitter? in your listening room. To do this: Stop breathing, stop your heart, cool your body down to room temperature, seal the room from any outside air, turn off that hot Class-A amp, and disconnect your speakers. That?s all! In short: anybody who claims to be able to hear 2 ns of jitter is either a mistaken, a liar, or a zombie. I?ll assume the best by assuming that they are a zombie! [/QUOTE]
