Define "98% capacity". I'm not trolling, the problem is a bit more complex than that.Just out of curiousness, where the other references that performed better, also tested at 98% capacity?
Well, at 98 out of 100 of maximum power, lets say well above clipping levels.Define "98% capacity". I'm not trolling, the problem is a bit more complex than that.
At first the volume control was turned to 98% to get to the preferred output level on the line out. At that point clipping was noticed, and further measurements of the amplifier stage were done with a reduced volume (not clipping).Well, at 98 out of 100 of maximum power, lets say well above clipping levels.
Im after fair comparisons.
Some never clip even at max output. Some are fine at the nominal 2V/4V levels used here. Look at individual reviews.Well, at 98 out of 100 of maximum power, lets say well above clipping levels.

Hmm, reading the review for volume levels again. I cant find a test where the volume level was lower than 95. Still above clipping level AFAIK.At first the volume control was turned to 98% to get to the preferred output level on the line out.

Can you give an example of a test where the volume control is over 95% and the amplifier is clipping, because I'm not sure I understand your comment.Hmm, reading the review for volume levels again. I cant find a test where the volume level was lower than 95. Still above clipping level AFAIK.
Can you give an example of a test where the volume was reduced to below 0.55V at which the variable output according to the manufacturer has no clipping?At first the volume control was turned to 98% to get to the preferred output level on the line out.

Why should I, it's you that came with a question. Why should tests of other equipment reduce the signal level to a level that only applies to Hegel's line out's?Can you give an example of a test where the volume was reduced to below 0.55V at which the variable output according to the manufacturer has no clipping?
You seem to misunderstand me completely, never said that other equipment should adapt their levels.Why should I, it's you that came with a question. Why should tests of other equipment reduce the signal level to a level that only applies to Hegel's line out's?
Correct, and I thought I already explained that in https://www.audiosciencereview.com/...-review-streaming-amplifier.28435/post-989358.You seem to misunderstand me completely, never said that other equipment should adapt their levels.
But just that they should be tested at their optimal levels, not at 140% volume. For fairness?
Congrats. You're the genius of the day.Try listening to music instead of measurements. Measurements have nothing to do with sound transmission quality

And? You just said the H95 isn't that brilliant:Try listening to music instead of measurements.
H95 is really not the most outstanding sound,
Yeah. Nothing."Nothing" ? That's an assertion that I think almost no-one will agree with.
Nothing a high end power cable can't fix.This ... is not brighter than this.
The amp testing was done at 95 as that’s where the amp provides a gain of 29dB, the THX standard and around the stated gain for most amps on the market. If lower volume level was used, then likely less wattage would be obtained.I cant find a test where the volume level was lower than 95. Still above clipping level AFAIK.
Well this is just a reference to your own post with your claim. Not to at what test where levels adapted to optimal.Correct, and I thought I already explained that in https://www.audiosciencereview.com/...-review-streaming-amplifier.28435/post-989358.
