And we are not talking about attenuation either.
But I will take a stab at an analogy.
Then what happens if I use a proper dither with a 50% duty cycle on/off?
On/off within one sample period will violate Nyquist for any discussion that involves valid concepts between frequency and time domain analysis.

On/off at a slow rate and many FFT averages.
will be interesting to see how the anti-MQA backlash is going. Both Schitt and PSaudio have given it a resounding 2 thumbs up. Seems Bob has changed tack recently and wants to bake MQA into the hardware and effectively take over final voicing of any product. Not suprisingly this gets a dim view from many.
Personally I see it as a streaming technology, and therefore of no interest. Outside of streaming I can't see labels liking it as you lose the ability to charge 50% more for the HD version.
I just picked up a Simon Rattle/BPO beethoven symphony set in 24/96 and 24/192 2 channel and surround. Will be interesting to compare.

Don't come to the Newport hi fi show, Derfnofred, with that attitude! We actually think that we can hear small differences in audio quality. '-)
No worries, I'm not the right clientele regardless. (Broke and incredulous)
A 10,000 uF radial electrolytic capacitor may have 200 nH of inductance.
With 15mm or less lead spacing?
Well, if lytics like that do exist, I'd like to know... Although I can't imagine how you could fit a large enough current loop between the layers of foil without shorting out the inductance.
Oops meant axial. Actually a typical value! Or a lesson in why to use radials.

You're confusing me, I thought Schiit gave it the Schiits. They won't get schiit out of me.

D'oh, proof read failure. You are right 2 thumbs DOWN.
Well, I figured out most of my noise problem I think. The noise at 1KHz and 10KHz is close enough to the prediction that it must be fine. The excess noise (literally) is above 10KHz and I think it may come from the Mosfet cascodes.
I just wasn't thinking about bandwidth.

Right, I figure everyone is jealous of Apple's business plan of getting people to pay for things that used to be free.
After the recent amplifier review in SP I suspect Schiit's credibility is sinking like a stone. Maybe a kidney stone that was just passed? That can be a good thing.
My late father suffered from them sometimes, and when he saw one come out in his urine my late mother said it was the first time he had ever said, in all their years of marriage, "This must be my lucky day!"

He said he made three mistakes. The three of us of his progeny were always amused by that.He never got lucky? How could that be?
