OK, so those charts do seem to show a nice reduction in deterministic jitter.
Is that at 5.644 MHz?
Any indication that the jitter at that scale would have resulted in actual bit errors in the audio signal transmission?
No.
Any indication that the heavy-handed reclocking doesn't force its own bit errors?
Heavy handed??? There are no bit-errors. This is checked by my receiver in my DAC. if there are any errors, it mutes.
Wouldn't a BERT (Bit Error Rate Tester) be better suited for the purpose of testing?
Sure, knock yourself out. There are NO BIT ERRORS.
As far as I am concerned, jitter doesn't worry me a bit as long as it does not introduce bit errors.
Then your concerns are misplaced. A survey of industry DAC designers about 5 years ago showed that 90% of them felt that jitter was the #1 thing that impacts audio sound quality. I am with them. The #2 issue is poor digital filter design. This is why NOS DACs are so popular.
