I suggest everyone stop bellyaching that the owner of the site, who pays the bills, decides to use his forum to post a few messages on a...

Using Multitone Analyzer pink spectrum generator:

The problem with the "simple method" is that it is based on only measuring drift between start and end of the recording, so less...

Let's just rename it to Audio Pedantic Review, then I could stop reading and half-expecting to find a discussion about technology and...

Well, that's a mistake for starters!

The discussion was very clearly about THD+N values in % (these represent a ratio and have no units). What other way would you interpret...

Here's a loopback recording from Gearspace thread on null testing: RME Fireface UCX II (SteveDanger) 1.3 dB (L), 1.3 db (R), -43.7 dBFS...

It works, but not if you're using a separate DAC and ADC units that don't do a clock sync.

Nope, it's ok now,forget the above.

Only if you are *deliberately* misinterpreting - ie being obtuse... or a pedant. The intent of the person using the phrase is clear.

Perhaps you should read the title and the OP of this thread? Sure. Which is why it's important to calibrate your measurement equipment...

Bluetooth? No, haven't tested these. But then you're testing Bluetooth codecs, and bluetooth implementation, not just the DAC. And...

Agreed. It's important not make any conclusions from flawed measurements that produce outlier results.

It is not that easy to get good or even perfect results from DAC/ADC loops. It is difficult for unqualified persons and it is easy to...
