Antijitter


Does an antijitter unit (I'm looking at the Ultra Jitterbug) make sonic or economic sense when placed between a Theta Basic and a Theta DAC?

I have a Theta Jade and found that one so called "anti-jitter" or "jitter reducer"device actually added jitter. The device can only reduxce jitter if the transport itself has more jitter than the so called "jitter reducer". I still believe that data errors are far more important tahn jitter. I recently did a test using the output of 3 different transports, my Theta, a borrowed SONY and my Toshiba DVD. The difference, especially above 10k was still striking. I am surprised how little low end transport technology has improved since I did a similar analysis 6 or 7 years ago.
