Hey guys,
I was watching a video on youtube about USB dacs and computer as a source of music and I came across this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FmsJ6l8DtZw&playnext=1&list=PL0A746E5ACBB3772C&index=3
basically this gentleman says that computers are meant to do computation and they are not for streaming audio. and he explains about all the electromagnetic interference and jitter and so on.
I was wondering if there is any truth to that, in which case I would like to ask: then what should you do if you want 192kHz/24 bit music from HDtracks, because you cant do that with CD players (as CD quality is only 16 bit 44.1kHz.
I know there are some very experienced computer audio specialists and I hope to recieve some informative guidances.
thanks.
