    Hegel H95 Review (Streaming Amplifier)

    So you would say the review is perfect ? I am asking the wrong questions ? One should perhaps not ask any questions, but just accept. I have mentioned 2 subjects, referring to other issues does not do much for these 2 afaik Hegel explain that the amp is clipping at level 98 when trying to...

    Hegel H95 Review (Streaming Amplifier)

    Why is the review still out, when the Line outs could not provide more than 0.55 V, but were driven to 2 V ? And who in their right mind would set the volume knob at 98/100 when playing music ? How about testing it at 0.5 v output, or just delete the entire review ? Of course Hegel should...

    Review and Measurements of Crown XLS 1502 Amp

I do not mean PA systems, which sacrifice everything to get loud (typical 106-120db) High sensitivity produce less heat and more sound, moving systems tend to be lighter...

    Denon AVR-X3500H AVR Review

    i generally conclude that if something measures poorly, it must perform poor as well. Thats just me. What else is the point ? And these are not Tube Amps For the standby mode, i have no comment. It is in general, just a bad idea. Plus: you can still get instant on, if you use remote...

    Denon AVR-X3500H AVR Review

    Its a mystery why not at least one of these companies, on the bottom of the charts, study the measurements and see if there is anything that can be done to get better results. They could use this in marketing, i mean if they say: "we listened to our customers and decided it was time to improve...
