Quote: I think the reason that there are "audiophiles" and not videophiles is twofold. For one, in this day and age, video can be purely digital, while audio output must always be analog. But more importantly,...

Electri-q has both VST and native Winamp versions.

I'm tempted to just say it's nonsense, but he's allowed just barely enough room for plausibility. The entire argument is based on the idea that extremely small (tens of picoseconds) of phase error audibly effects sound. I would say...

That depends on exactly how much input lag you're talking about. I can tell you 50ms is enough to throw off one's aim. Most games these days hide lag though, so it isn't like Quake 2 where you'd have to manually adjust your shot to where...

The "Hz" rating of a screen is largely irrelevant. You need to know the measured transition time matrix to know what the transition speed will be like, and it isn't a single number. Non-linearities like RTC error also need to...
