Some fresh fun and free data from upcoming ifi idsd pro review!

I thought you might like a look at some data charts pulled from my archives... We all love (or many of us just quite frankly hate) more charts and data!  I am starting to develop that love/hate relationship with it... leaning toward the 'hate' part, because every second I am taking measurements or preparing them for publishing is a second that I was at one time and could be at this time actually enjoying the hobby of LISTENING!   Maybe someday I can afford what those fancy shmancy sites have.. those people who do things for you for pay.  Alas, for now, it is me doing the measuring AND inputing the data. 

I came of age with computers as a teenager in the early to mid 1990's.  I have been there for it 'all'.  Well almost anyway.  From the days of 'Quantumlink' dialup on the Commodore 64, to the 'You've Got Mail!' sound every time I logged onto to America Online!  from my mid 1990's Macintosh Performa, all the way to the invention of the iPad, Smartphone, etc, and I still feel like a complete idiot around Gen Z who whiz around their smart technology like their smartphone was grown with them in the womb.  

That is a long way of saying, yeah, I am more computing challenged than I would like to admit, being a 'pioneer' and all that haha.  

Anyway.. all that rubbish said, here is an early preview of the measurements of the iFi iDSD PRO 4.4mm Pentconn output version.  Full review finally coming early next week.  

An early look at the iDSD PRO jitter measurements. Quite impressively low 6.1 picoseconds at 96khz
