Well, that is a great use of your technology indeed, hats off. It makes perfect sense there (less so in human audio with inefficient...

Correct! Somewhere around -40dBFS, when the paths change, we measure a marked THD+N step function (see graph). This is what is meant by...

McIntosh Power Guard uses an input attenuator as part of its protective circuit, which dynamically and electronically reduces the input...

There have been many names given to this type of topology since the 1950s: multi-path, floating, adaptive, heuristic, gain ranging or...
