3a How can it has nothing to do with the ethernet network when all buffered and read information comes from the source which is the ethernet work? And that information( voltages/electric signals) from network is sent to dac to work with.
[4] In detail how does the sound information i hear travel as ones and zeros? What is these ones and zeros? Voltages/electrical signals of some sort i asume. How can they translate to the sound of a flute for exempel that i hear in my system?
From what i understand the adc measures/record sound as samples in time as voltages around twice 20khz in time that be a 16 bit/44.1 khz track. So it will be around 44100 samples in 1 sec right? And this is sent as zeroes and ones somehow in my ethernet network to my dac that exctract these numbers but in reverse way in voltages? This buffer to read the sound information from does only exist in my dac? Its not part of the ethernet plug i saw the tear down aq vodka cable had some chipset at the end? Or at the rj45 connection slot at my streamer that blinks gren yellow lights?
3a. It has nothing to do with the ethernet nertwork because all the data received is stored in a buffer AFTER the ethernet network and as you yourself have quoted, stored data is NOT impacted by noise, jitter or anything else! In other words, the "source" is effectively this buffer NOT the ethernet network.
4. You are asking: "What is binary digital data and how is it used to store and transfer analogue audio signals?" These are good questions but the OBVIOUS (and frankly incomprehensible) problem is that you should have asked and answered them BEFORE you started publicly arguing about it!
How can you spend days and days publicly arguing about digital audio data when you don't even know what digital audio data is?!
The Sound Science sub-forum is probably the correct place to ask and answer your questions and answering "in detail" is not practical here, because there are a lot of details, which is why we need micro-processor devices (such as ADCs and DACs) that can deal with lots of details. So, very simplified (not "in detail") answers:
"
What is these ones and zeros? - These ones and zeros are just that, the numerical values of "one" and "zero".
"Voltages/electrical signals of some sort i asume." - No, these ones and zeros ("bits") can be pretty much anything that has two states which can quickly and reliably be read, the most common examples: The ones and zeros can be regions of reversed and non-reversed magnetic fields on a tape, floppy disk or hard disk drive. They can be microscopic indentations ("pits") and non-indentions ("lands") on CD, DVD and BluRay disks (read by measuring the different reflections produced by a laser). They can be a sequence of on/off pulses of light in fibre-optic networks. They can be a high or low voltage stored in microscopic capacitors on SSDs, RAM modules, etc., or, they can be a sequence of high and low voltages in the case of ethernet, USB and similar networks. The
important thing is that there are ONLY TWO states, it doesn't matter how distorted a reversed/non-reversed magnetic field is, how imperfect the "pits" and "lands", how degraded the on/off pulses of light or how noisy a high or low voltage is, as long as the two different states can be identified. A massively degraded/distorted pulse of light is still a pulse of light (as opposed to no light) and is therefore a "1". A massively distorted high voltage is still a high voltage (a "1") and a massively distorted low voltage is still a low voltage (a "0"). So, a perfect sequence of zeroes and ones can be stored and transferred even using highly imperfect electrical, optic or magnetic signals and media, which is precisely why binary digital data was invented in the first place!
"
How can they translate to the sound of a flute for exempel that i hear in my system?" - On their own, a one or a zero is pretty useless but by combining them we can represent a far greater range of values. This is exactly the same as our decimal number system: We only have the numerical values of 0 - 9, which is a very small range of values but by combining them we can represent a very large range values. For a value beyond the number 9 we combine two numbers to form "10", beyond 99 we combine three numbers and so on. The exact same happens with binary, we combine our numbers (bits) to represent larger values: We have 0 and 1, then we need another bit for the next number, 10 (= our number 2), the next number 11 (= 3) is still two bits but the next number is 100 (= 4) which requires 3 bits, 101 = our number 5 and so on. CD uses a combination of 16 bits (16 zeros or ones), which can represent any value up to 65,536.
What an ADC does is measure the voltage of an incoming analogue audio signal and then, using a mathematical formula, assigns it a value between 0 and 65,536 (represented by a sequence of 16 ones and zeros). In the case of CD, 44,100 measurements and digital value assignments are made per second. A DAC takes these digital values (sequences of 16 zeros and ones) and using a mathematical formula, reconstructs the original analogue audio signal. The answer to your question is therefore: They CANNOT translate to the sound of a flute! The ONLY thing that ADCs and DACs "translate" is an analogue audio signal into a sequence of zeros/ones and back again, so it can be stored and transferred perfectly. That's it, there is NOTHING else, there is NO sound! Sound doesn't exist until the very end of the reproduction chain, which is why you need headphones or speakers, to convert the analogue audio signal into sound. Whether the sound you hear sounds like a flute, depends on the analogue signal, how well it's converted to sound (by your HPs) and your brain's interpretation (perception) of that sound.
