Wow - that's rich, snake oil-scented musician-associated virtue signaling implying good sound reproduction. - this really lowers my enthusiasm. -reading this, halfway through I expected them to reveal it's a 'perfectly realized' R/2R ladder.

possibly because they know so many* 'audiophiles' have a difficult time restraining themselves from wanting to buy the latest/newest model - despite knowing there's rarely any audible differences, just hoping to hear a difference in their systems to recreate the awe of discovery we've all had...

Look, Cogito we know you don't want this. You don't see a use case. You prefer other solutions. You've been clear on that. You probably shouldn't give it another thought. However with all of the performance, function, well thought out capabilities that are evident in the Element IV (whether...

That's a very practical approach and solution, and exactly the way I would have done it - if I weren't so broke (back then) and cheap-by-nature that I built mine from salvaged relay, socket, connectors, and case - on solderless breadboard and fly-wiring a few parts. Yours is superior...

I thought of the SMSL VMV A2 and the Sabaj A30a immediately when I read Amir's comment. I know the Sabaj A30a hasn't been reviewed here - but I thought Amir recommended the VMV A2 - ?

I'm fairly confident they can make a firmware version that does add a full-range output to the SW, but I seriously doubt they would. It seems like a bad business decision, to invest time & resources (testing) for a f/w update, for an almost non-existent market demand. A full-range mono output...

I wasn't reading those 2 year old messages (just the one Guerilla referred to, because you invited education...) -but now that I go back and check your reference..... and what do I find? - Is this voodooless preferring to see higher sampling rate than the 2x maximum frequency of interest? -...

Was it? I didn't see you make that point. You didn't make any point.

I do think you’re wrong about there being “zero proof” that higher is better. I do think your statement (that Guerilla referenced) showed ignorance of the basis of sampling theory, and I thought simply pointing out the concept of the Nyquist-Shannon theorem would at least help. (I didn’t...

Actually, there is, but as I hadn't indicated what would be better or why, it's clear you are merely looking for an argument. -Good luck with that. I now see Guerilla was correct.

Nyquist's theorem states that a periodic signal must be sampled at more than twice the highest frequency component of the signal. This is considered the minimum sample rate (2x the highest frequency of interest), but in practice, higher is better. (I believe Guerilla was referring to: August...

Oh, you mean the 70 kilometer Tunguska?

and you were right.

-wait 'til you try punctuation!

That's very interesting. I'd been wondering how this was determined by either reports of 'SWO too high' & ''SWO too low' wrt. main speaker level, and I had to imagine that the room nodes & acoustics must be hard to eliminate (as it always is for <100Hz) in real-world installations. -I imagine...

From the manual - available on the Sabaj website:

I like the fuller ring of text around the center. I think I'd like it better with the dots replaced with the leaf-shaped features for continuity with the old existing logo. Still like the white/blue scope logo (but with rectilinear graph background) Of course, I'd also miss the sheep (even...

This white/blue one is my favorite so far, except (there's always an exception, right?) I prefer the upper grid to be rectlinear, rather than a net.

Oh, I see now - it's a highlight from the upper left - I thought maybe the knob was shown at a very slight oblique angle
