I like that.. along with the results too

Has John proven that he can hear 0.2 dB ripple in an ABX test? Not that this can be proven across the Atlantic ocean. But has he even claimed he can hear that reliably?

BTW, Ethan it is +/-.1dB not .1dB P-P? OK. I was sure I'd read the latter.
Ethan, is that 100 db S/N for transparency attributed to you correctly states your position?Thanks for clarifying. Yes, I had thought 0.1 dB total span was the accepted maximum for inaudibility.

Ethan Winer, an acoustics expert, discusses how audio electronics can be defined as audibly transparent by four broad categories of measurements and he provides his personal criteria for complete transparency. He states that gear passing all these criteria will not contribute any audible sound of its own and in fact sound the same as any other gear passing the same criteria:
Frequency Response: 20 hz to 20 Khz +/- 0.1 dB
Distortion: At least 100 dB (0.001%) below the music while others consider 80 dB (0.01%) to be sufficient and Ethan’s own tests confirm that (see below).
Noise: At least 100 dB below the music
Time Based Errors – In the digital world this is jitter and the 100 dB rule applies for jitter components.

Originally from the NWAVGuy's article. I chased it and it came from this AES workshop presentation you made: http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=...8O3qAw&usg=AFQjCNHKCz8k4mRLRtZLrqDImoaOzeExzQ (note: clicking on it downloads a file)Where did that attribution come from?
From that video that you CONSTANTLY refer people to! If you have no idea of it's contents is it just stream of conciousness uttering, then?Where did that attribution come from?

Guys, you can call me anything you want just not early in the morning
What was the topic?
high res audio 24/192, good or bad idea? :b
* me, like i said before, i'm real happy with 20/88.2, or 24/176.4 is mighty fine as well. :b
...32/352.8? Why not. :b
