All continuous time analogue storage systems have major issues depending on how far you push them. Digital ones also have significant issues when used to represent and reconstruct continuous time analogue signals.
And here we are again, back to exactly where we started when I responded to you in post #58: "You're vastly confusing scale. A football and the sun can both be described as enormously big compared to an atom but of course, just because they are both "enormously big" doesn't mean that a football and the sun are roughly the same size!" In regard to an original analogue signal, digital audio does have issues at the very low, well beyond audibility, level. Analogue storage systems also have issues but very much higher, in some cases a magnitude higher but in all cases higher and well into the audible range. The equivalency between the issues of analogue and digital you are asserting is fallacious! A football and the sun are different sizes. How is it possible that you have a degree in applied physics/electronics/maths and not have any idea about relative scale?
pinnahertz I'm rather aware this could go on forever and we've both presented our present ideas and opinions.
You've presented your ideas and opinions, based on assumption, subjective observation and inapplicable facts, whereas Pinnahertz has presented actual applicable facts. A very different reality to the picture you are painting of some sort of equivalency between what you're trying to prove and what Pinnahertz is stating. For example, you could have the opinion that 1+1=2, I could have the different opinion that 1+1=5. I could demonstrate that you are wrong because for example, 1 drop of water + 1 drop of water does not equal 2 drops of water, it equals 1 drop of water (albeit a larger drop). You have proven fact to back up your opinion and I've got nothing except a dubious observation, assumption and some inapplicable facts. While we would both have an equal right to our different opinions, that does not mean our opinions are in any way equal valid!
I've asked you repeatedly to present some actual facts, some reliable, applicable evidence that digital does not result in perfect fidelity within audibility and you've repeatedly refused to do so. You either just ignore the request or you misdirect by providing details of some digital "issue" which is NOT audible. I bet you didn't get your degree by employing that tactic!
