Actually, -10dB is just in terms of absolute safety. Per my measurement, the issue is gone at -6dB. Anything <-6dB should be fine.

I don't care. They can stop building amps for all the good it's going to do me.

I will not buy a a Topping amp whatever measurement they have. The company showed behavior that was unacceptable to me considering that...

Given issues others have had with products by Topping, I would much rather go for the Fosi, even if it is slightly bettered. I have a...

Do you know if Flex Eight is the same way re: multi-tone performance?

Ah, OK, I see what you mean. Yes, that's quite possible, but you do then have to include a volume control in this upstream high-pass...

This amp (and others like it, with a sub out) does not have a main pre-out. All the routing of the main signal pass-through is done...

How? You’d have to tap into the PCB or wiring inside in order to do so, not? At least with the sub out you can run it into your own box...

Oh, wow. That is not something that’s OK to have happen, no matter the price point.

What might help is if you make the x and y axes the same on the before and after versions of the graphs? Initially, I thought the...

Nah, the shadow doesn’t even look right. You can see 360 around the switch itself
