So I misinterpreted one line of your post...sorry . If I sum up your comments is it right that you say there is no such thing as jitter in the audio chain from a computer to a Devialet or DAC espacially if we use AIR (over ETH)? Right? I get the feeling you want to get me wrong and did not read my post depending on AIR. I didn't say it is AIR who is the culprit here when we're talking about jitter. It's (mostly) the rest surrounding AIR in the digital chain that is causing jitter. One question, if you open any program does it always need the same time to start? If you open a jpeg from your HDD does it always take the same amount of time? Depends on what your OS is doing at the moment doesn't it? There might be a delay. This is crucial for a stream. And if it was not why is it that tuning software as 'Audiophile Optimizer' 'jPlay' 'Process Lasso' 'Fidelizer' and the like lead to fantastic better sound when they are installed? I'm no software engineer nor a chip designer I'm only thinking out loud because there's to be a reason why we are hearing differences within firmwares (ah, got the topic here ), computers and tuning softwares. Many here on the forum are speaking about different AIR versions are sounding very different. Why is that when AIR does everything right and is bitperfect by design? If you say that jitter doesn't exist in a digital computer audio chain why is it that all the different computers using the same AIR have a different sound? Or are you saying this is not the case? Then we can stop the discussion here . edit: Yes, not ALL but a lot of hiss, boomy sound and sibilance are caused by digital and analog timing errors. That's exactly what it is and what I'm experiencing when I'm tuning room (analog), computers (digital), cases of devices (analog), cables (analog/digital) etc. You might only think in terms of resistance, impedance and capacity. But all this leads to different influences onto different frequencies leading to...timing errors. gui RE: New Firmware 10.1.0 - jfp - 26-Apr-2017 just for the pleasure of pics it sounds really good, although it is difficult to compare with previous version due to ear memory limitation EDIT : I play Agnes Obel and must admit it is very beautiful ! (I listened to it this afternoon too with previous FW) RE: New Firmware 10.1.0 - ssfas - 27-Apr-2017 Save me reading 82 posts - as my unit works fine, is it worth bothering? RE: New Firmware 10.1.0 - IanG-UK - 27-Apr-2017 I suspect in all this debate over characteristics of sound changes, Devialet has a simple headline system which is an input output comparison based on the three coded (digital) input characteristics of amplitude, frequency and time; and the three coded (voltage) output characteristics of the same factors. Given that they will not score 100% on this transitional process, I'd guess they will weight the errors in each component to optimise the fact that what ultimately emerges will be a musical signal at the loudspeaker, so maybe they give more weight to the timing component that the other two. And I'd guess that, beyond that judgement, they will treat their box as a digital to voltage processing device which merely tries to get the output as a mirror of the input, whether "straight through" or subject to volume or balance or tone or SAM interferences. So my suspicion is that if you asked them if they are improving the ultra high treble characteristic, they won't give you an answer either because they are simply improving the input/output transfer characteristic and/or because they do have some correlations of sound quality versus signal "quality" but they regard these are proprietary and non-disclosable.

The benefit to bother ratio favors benefit.
