OK, I'm convinced . After a few senior moments with trying to compare the Motu to the QA I have concluded the QA is actually doing very well!
Below is the motu noise floor with the input amp gain set to 0dB and then +14dB to create a FS of 2V rms. This puts the noise floor above the QA.
Now with a -12dBV input signal (250 mV rms) for direct comparison to the QA. I cant explain the curve in the noise floor, but either way the QA is doing better.
So I'm going to push the button and get one.
Amir, as mentioned, do you think it is worth seeing if any other members are interested and contacting QA to see if we can get any accommodation on the pricing?
