What does Jitter sound like?


I keep hearing the term jitter used to describe a kind of distortion that is especially problematic with CD Players.

What does Jitter sound like?
How can I identify it?

It is like looking through a window that is fogged-up. HF noise mostly riding on the music. The spectrum and amplitude have a large effect on audibility, as does the system. If the system has a lot of sibilance from other sources, then it may be masked by this.
