[QUOTE="u235, post: 74985, member: 1485"] Regardless of whether the wave is square or not, the processor is binary, so it will recognise it as either on or off, not something in between. So the only error that can creep in is missing or spurious bits. Don't these things have parity checkers? Ten thousand errors in 100Mb (which is 5X more than Ludo reported) means one in ten thousand incorrect bits. If the DAC constructs the analogue wave faithfully, you would only have 0.01% distortion, which (if it is an equivalent measure) is one third that of a NAD M3 amplifier. What am I missing? [/QUOTE]
