Re: Yep

BTW, it's always interesting watching non-audio engineers comment on what's "not important" in audio. Given jneutron's comments about the Nordmark analysis, and the implications for timing, it would be interesting to go back and rethink Pease's comments about what's not important.....

Mmmm. Don't quite see what Nordmark has to do with DA. What's Nordmark to do with DA?

Given the low impedances of the amp-speaker connection, I also doubt it's a huge effect; it's probably more pronounced in high-impedance line level connections.

What's its effect? If you look at the DA model, in the ideal sense, its effect would be alterations in frequency and phase response. I'd think that the basic LCR parameters of the cable would tend to swamp out the effects of DA in terms of frequency and phase response alternations.

I suppose there could be a nonlinear element in there somewhere, but given that Bruno didn't find anything to speak of in the viscinity of -145dB, it would seem to be more an intellectual curiousity than something to lose sleep over except perhaps on philosophical or ideological grounds.
