I do not know. People say a lot of words about jitter and speculate a lot about the topic. I never heard from anyone any real definition how a high level of jitter sounds in realty. I heard 4 (!!!!) complete contradictory descriptions how high level of jitter manifest itself subjectively – interesting that they all derived from the engineers whose credibility is very high (not juts the audio-tweakers who fart sound out of their audio components by changing capacitors). No one says that jitter is good but there is probably a lot of more then juts perusing a lower jitter. At least it is what I feel as when I experienced objectively-less jitter digital then it was not necessary that this digital performer better. For instance the Museatex original transport coupled with Bidat using Meitner’s C-lock synchronization mechanism that has NO MEASURABLE JITTER at all. However, this combo does sound very-very unfortunately. The top of the line Wadia, another instance, have very low jitter but those Wadia perform awfully. Certainly there are a lot of other things in digital that describe Sound but unfortunately the digital people talk only about jitter. Try to talk with them about something else, not to mention Music.  Another problem with the people who “do digital” are mostly just unable to objectively asses subjectively what the heal they do. So they build the sonic microwaves and push to the audio pubic a new marketing BS telling then of how they fought the jitter for instance…. The explanation from Lavry Forum that you linked does sound very reasonable. What is unreasonable to me that with objectively better clock in my TL0 I got that that horrible sound…
