So the often stated notion that jitter doesn’t matter because the receiver captures the data and puts it in a “buffer” (memory) and then plays it from there is wrong. Yes, audio samples are captured and stored for convenience until played. But no, that fact does not eliminate the effect of timing variations as the DAC must output the samples using the timing prior to that buffer capture.
...
There are smart but more complex solutions to the above problem. After many years of building devices with the S/PDIF interface, manufacturers have mostly figured out how to suppress jitter to very low and acceptable levels. Then came this interface called HDMI which set us back many years in this respect. Jitter over HDMI can be as much 10X higher than S/PDIF!
...
Look at the Onkyo or Yamaha AVR above. If you are listening to a CD from your Blu-ray player, why not use the S/PDIF connection and with it, enjoy much reduced jitter levels? You get better fidelity without spending a dime.
