My guess is this has to do with core stability. Dropouts occur more easily on the newer chips because the cores behave more erratically, even though they’re faster overall.

Doesn’t the article indicate the difference had to do with utilization of e-cores? Since the newer Apple silicon has more e-cores and fewer p-cores?

Dropouts occur […] all the cores behave more erratically

What does this even mean?

Are you trying to say something about latency versus throughput?

It means the clock frequency varies more than M1

Imagine 2 runners racing. One can trip and fall, get up and still win. Faster but less stable. For real time signal processing you have to maintain a minimum clock or dropouts and artifacts will occur.

Good M1
