Yeah, I noticed that...although it is pretty flat to below
100Hz...doubt if there is much in the way of sounds I want that is
down there...in any case, I like the slightly higher output(even after
you calculate for the higher output impedance) and the better noise
floor...I have ordered a pair and will report back when they come in....

thanks
