yea SINAD was unchanged when I changed to Fs = 48kHz. I will reach out to my contacts at Masimo to better understand their test conditions. We are in the weeds when dealing with such low distortion so it's difficult to repeat these results sometimes.

Damn I never saw this video and Masimo said my test results were accurate. I will rerun with a BW limited source instead of 192khz to see if it improves the measurements.

The distortion was the same with 2 or 7CH driven. Marantz doesn't specifiy SINAD so not sure where you got that from.

Unfortunately, no. I've been asking for this too.

It's not surprising that the Marantz AV 10 15.4CH 8K AV Processor produced excellent bench test results. This $7K processor has bass management features no other competitor has in this price class such as LFE Bass Routing and Bass Re-distribution. We thoroughly test these features to show you...

The Børresen Acoustics M1 doesn’t look too different from other high-end two-way bookshelf speakers, but its $100,000 price tag suggests that there is more to them than meets the eye. Even if you think the price is ridiculous, you might be fascinated to learn about this speaker’s unique...

It's a big show and James is one person.

Since Pioneer and Integra are clones of each other, I'm combining both flagship receiver preview articles into the same forum thread. Most of the features of the Integra DRX-8.4 are carried over to Pioneer. Is the new Pioneer VSX-LX805 a poor man's Integra? Read: Pioneer Elite VSX-LX805 -...

I accidentally posted for May instead of April. Should be working now.

The new Integra DRX-8.4 AVR ($3,200) is the most exciting AV receiver from the company in years. With 11 channels of Class AB amplification tipping the scales at 50lbs and rated at 150 watts/ch, along with a host of high-end features, it might be the best value in the world of high-performance...

JBL has done gangbuster business with its retro Classic Series loudspeakers, and now there’s a set of electronics to match. The SA550 Classic integrated amplifier ($2,000), MP350 Classic streaming media player ($700), CD350 Classic CD player ($800), and TT350 Classic turntable ($1,000) combine...

Of your choices here, I'd go the Paradigm route. 800Fs are way better than they should be at their price. The 500C center is superb. Polk R700s are a step above but you have to get the costlier L400 center to get a true 3-way design. If you've got more budget, the MartinLogan F100s are...

What do you get when you give a speaker designer free range to create a home installers dream? The RTJ 410 and RT18Sub is the creation of Jeff Permanian, owner of JTR Speakers and the new company, RTJ Audio. Jeff gave us a pop-up demonstration at the Audioholics Smart Home last year and the...
