I can understand the idea that a V8 engine with 6 pistons is still a
V8. Where I really have trouble understanding is with 16 bits how do
you get 120 db audio performance? As far as I understand that will
take some magic, but maybe.
Likely it is 44.1/16 and they made the cutoff 15,000 so that they
could get by with a simple filter before the a/d. If that is what is
going on you should see 96 db as the floor when tested with your mkh-
80. Not greater than 110 s/n and no 120 db audio range.=20
It could be my understanding is seriously flawed which would not be a
first. Either way I think I want one of these if it sounds good.
