what is jitter supposed to sound like?


I understand what jitter is from reading books and stuff. however, what kind of sound does it produce? I assume it is different from regular hiss....but I am not sure either.

"I would say that it makes everything less distinct"

That's the best description, and matches my experience. And it's a problem in both low and mid priced equipment. In low cost it's a problem due to low price components, and in mid priced equipment due to poor or careless design (a great design can be ruined if the PCB is incorrectly laid out).
