Søren H. Nielsen & Thomas Lund - 08-1-2001 A sine tone at 0dBFS is often believed to be the maximum level obtainable from a digital medium. Therefore it is typically the maximum level digital filters and analog circuitry in consumer equipment is aimed at reproducing.
As we have showed in previous papers, inter-sample peaks may be considerably higher than 0dBFS. This paper examines the sonic consequences when 0dBFS+ signals are reproduced in typical consumer equipment. The performance of a variety of domestic CD players exposed to such signals are presented and evaluated.
