<< < (3/3)

Dither is about eliminating distortions which occur before the audio reaches your DAC. It's not something a DAC can correct after the fact.
I also don't agree with the notion that all audio processing is bad. Something like JRiver's Volume Leveling makes a big difference to the user experience, and dithering prevents it from affecting the audio quality.
