Hello all,
Looking at the measurements, seems that the only "weak" point of the flex is the IMD. I am trying to understand what this means in real life but I don't see it has been discussed in the thread, sorry if I am wrong.
My understanding of this is very limited, but 90db seem to me really a lot and nothing to worry about, but i might be missing something... Are there situations with real music that this could generate an audible effect that a normal person would notice? I don't know, for instance if you are listening to something with a lot of percussion at low frequencies, could this distorsion generate audible artifacts at higher frequencies? (I hope I am not saying something very very stupid).
Additionally, just to make sure I understand how this works and to learn. Amir's imd graph and multitone are taken at -0.5 dB volume, is it expected that for instance at -6db volume the imd level is still at the same 90db and that at, for instance, -20db or -30db volume the imd would already be buried in the noise? Or this is not how it works and we would still be having some distortion adding to the noise at those volume levels? What I am basically asking is how the imd graphs would look if done with the volume at -6db or at -20db for instance. (I don't know if lowering the incoming signal as amir measurement is done is equivalent to lowering the volume).
Thank you for your comments.
