Duh I don't know. Maybe because the first word in the name of this place is AUDIO?
What if all his measurements are wrong. Wouldn't someone of such high moral character as Ammir want to set the record straight.
Nooo that is actually you. lol Came from one of the paparazzi chasing you.I know it’s scary but you can come out now..
Can I just clarify something here. Are you saying Amirs measurements are incorrect? If so can you pkease explain what you think is wrong with them?
Also can I ask if you understand the meadurements shown in your link? To my eyes they look dreadful.
Yes the meadurements look dreadful to meeee toooo.Can I just clarify something here. Are you saying Amirs measurements are incorrect? If so can you please technically explain what you think is wrong with them?
Also can I ask if you understand the measurements shown in your link? To my eyes they look dreadful.
Indeed. I would also be very happy to measure the unit to verify the data.Nice thing about the internet is someone can post their own counter-measurements.
Totally not applicable.In the review linked to, does the person making the comments have a sense of humour?
Compare to this undithered sine wave at -90dB from a decent CD player (in 1992!):
No, some random persons subjective listening impressions shared over the Internet is all that can save us nowTotally not applicable.
The measurements are posted with the intent they be scrutinised but what tends to happen is those who object don’t challenge the data with data of their own.. you get posturing and grandstanding but seldom anything useful .Can we not have this thread turn into a !^#@show. All I care about and all anyone else should is accurate measurements of any product by any brand regardless of your personal opinion. I don't care who is wrong or right and it's possible that both are right and measuring different things. I don't know and I'm not qualified to interpret that.

We want scrutiny, like peer review it’s a necessary part of our process and will lead to the best data being validated and mistakes being rectified.
Btw: the dac does not have 10 bit resolution. And your fearless leaders measurements are really way off. I know when he gets it fixed he will come back with the right stuff.
Oh, OK then. Sorry. I just saw the words "1kHz sine wave at -90dBFS" for both of them and thought they were supposed to be showing the same thing. Silly me. You're right. They don't look anything like each other.Totally not applicable.
You are of course correct, but cant we at least poke fun at the clueless fanboy for just a few minutes?If all they've got are their own or others subjective testimonies for how something sounds then remove their comments from the thread. Otherwise, this thread is going to become cluttered with noise that isn't relevant to the measurements made here or by others.
Ideally yes I agree but Iv tried that and you end up being accused of censorship aimed at protecting “faulty” measurements and saving face and that hurts the validity of what we are doing .If all they've got are their own or others subjective testimonies for how something sounds then remove their comments from the thread.

That's correct censorship helps to find the truth.If all they've got are their own or others subjective testimonies for how something sounds then remove their comments from the thread.

This is what we want, thank you .More measurements by AtomicBob who is the person who also posted their measurements to Head-Fi that I linked too earlier.

As I have said. This should not turn into an accusatory schiitshow.
Maybe instead of saying you would never listen to such a DAC, you actually did listen and you did not hear anything that would lead you to believe it really measures that badly? Do you trust your ears at all? 10bit rez? such bad distortion? You think you might hear something? Maybeeee?Ideally yes I agree but Iv tried that and you end up being accused of censorship aimed at protecting “faulty” measurements and saving face and that hurts the validity of what we are doing .
We’ve had all this before, some times it takes months to sort out but generally amir turns out to be correct but if he’s made a mistake he’s the first one to hold his hands up as all we are intrested in is valid measurement. There’s no ego to bruise.
I know it’s nuts but it’s what happens so I try and leave it all in now. It’s messy I agree, I try and keep things lighthearted so our members can have a joke while things get validated .
I apologise if the resulting content is not what you’d ideally want.
