No it claims 129 db instead of the 134 db of the x16 in dynamic range.

The X6 or X8 may be a more cost effective option, although still not inexpensive of course.

 

[Blumlein 88]

All off them below the x16 list 129 db for dynamic range. Elite series circuitry they call it. They likely parallel chips for lower noise in the x16 and parallel fewer of them for the lower priced products.

Amir have a unit for testing, we should wait for it.

Is this typical of full studio IO boxes, or is this targeted at the basement contract mixer studio? Just wondering what the state of the art is. Just because we have formats and boxes that claim 32 bit, does not mean it is actually being achieved.

I wonder, how many boards out there still have 4558's in them and consumers are buying 24/96 downloads from them?

I did a bit of housekeeping here to move that last string of posts to the appropriate thread.
I have to remind myself not to pollute the review threads with this stuff...

When you all see something that needs to be moved to the catch-all, please let me know.

Cheers.
