In Reply to: Noise? posted by Silver Eared John on November 18, 2005 at 14:00:09:
While I am searching for some detailed math on this... one thing springs to mind.
If dither eliminates quantization error completely at the expense of noise, doesn't that mean that a 2 bit quantization system would sound equivalent to a 16 bit system except that it has less dynamic range and is noisier?
