Thanks for the explanation. I own an XMC-2 and have listened to many of the processors rated above the XMC-2 in the SINAD chart. I did not think the chart was based on sound quality, but I was not sure. I appreciate your help.
I would appreciate a little help relative to the SINAD rating chart posted above. Is it supposed to relate to overall sound quality of each processor? Am I correct that Audio Science Review bases all ratings exclusively on measurements?
