Not 'blaming' you.. For what?Thomas, if you aren't interested, don't blame me.
Was simply inquiring if there was some narrative on your part to the links you posted.
Bit hostile there Bob, not sure what your driving at tbh.

No your very wrong there Bob, I clicked on the links and went through some of the information.No, but you question the poster without looking @ the content and commenting on the essence...the content.
This ain't about me or you Thomas, it's about cable's discussions. And the accent is certainly on measurements; and it is exactly what the two last links are about.
So, why asking me if it's related in having an argument, right? ...It's an intelligent discussion where we bring various ingredients to advance our higher learning.
That's all.
I am reading very clearly all members's comments from all their posts, and with the utmost consideration and best accommodation effort.
I fall in line with my King Bob, to do otherwise would be tantamount to suicidedYeah, I agree with that too.
So, what do you think on USB cable's resistance, voltage, separate power supply, and noise cancellation...asynchronous?
Bob, you have a style of expressing yourself that others at times have trouble understanding - we're all different, and that's the best thing about life! I'm somewhere between yourself and the others here; in spite of what they may think at times, I'm 100% in the camp of everything being rationally explainable - a key difference is that I don't jump up and down in frustration because I don't have the correct explanation at hand, at the moment.We're all different, all with our vision; in science it's the same...scientists have different visions too.
Science is way more than just measuring one thing; all other things around are also related...relativity.
Anybunchway, you guys all understand science and the other stuff related to it, I know that with absolute certainty.
Fun, learning, about everything...about us too.
We have a completely human-designed system that exists specifically to be digital i.e. based on numbers.
The very first consumer product for digital audio - the CD player - got it right: a system slaved to a crystal oscillator where the 'quality' of the bits didn't matter in the slightest so long as they were readable. Audiophiles soon 'broke' that system by insisting that the DAC should be in a separate box, being fed by a bit stream with an embedded clock - a theoretically inferior solution, even if none of us would ever hear a problem with it. However, around this tiny chink in digital audio's perfection, audiophiles could inflict massive amounts of misery on themselves.
But we have now restored the system to how it should be, with asynchronous, packet-based systems slaved to the DAC's local sample clock. If there's any jitter, it has nothing to do with the cable/link. It's difficult to accept I know, but sometimes things really do work perfectly, and you can forget about them.
Believe it or not, they actually can introduce it. Here is an actual measurement of what cable induced jitter on AES/EBU (sister of S/PDIF) when driven on a long, low bandwidth coax cable:We know that cables don't contain jitter, neither they introduce it.
It is not a clear statement but he is saying the same thing I said in the second sentence.Hmmm..in one of those previous links I provided an audio guru mentioned that jitter is not caused by cables.
Let me find it ...
8. Digital Cables
"Cables don't actively add jitter to the signal, however they can slow the signal transitions or "edges". When the edges are slowed, the receiver or buffer at the cable destination is less likely to detect the transition at the correct time with certainty, which results in jitter."
