"tubesforall" = a deranged liar


Nyquist theorem states that a non-variant signal freqency can be
reproduced that is 1/2 the sample rate.


** WRONG !!!!

It says that ANY signal with frequency components not exceeding a certain
bandwidth can be *exactly* reproduced by sampling it at a rate of double
that bandwidth.


Unfortunately, music that is invariant is not terribly interesting. Thus,
the common wisdom that 44.1KHz sampling can reproduce 22 KHz music is not
true.


** A stupid false conclusion based on the stupid false stating of Nyquist
above.



A seminal paper from MIT shows that distortion related to sampling must
consider both the sample rate and the target word size.


** Correct - the Nyquist sampling theorem assumes accurate samples.


For today's CDs--that is 16 bits.


** Which is **highly accurate** sampling.


Thus, according to this paper, a minimum of 8X frequency is required--10X
is better.


** Pure horse manure.


Working backwards, that means that CD technology can only reproduce, at
best, 5.5 KHz before distortion starts to enter in.


** More asinine bull****.

CD players can reproduce 19 kHz and 20 kHz simultaneously with no IM at
all.

Proof of perfect high frequency linearity.



Other solutions have worked hard to reduce this problem by oversampling,
adding bits, etc.


** You are a miserable, bloody liar.

**** off !!!!
