Remember that one? It was a wretched sounding thing, but they sold a ton of them because it had the best measurements of the day. Amir and his followers are wasting their time obsessing over noise and distortion levels that are not only inaudible, but also masked by the rest of the audio system. That's not science. The Ayre has an unusual reconstruction filter, it's almost not one. That's what makes it sound different, not SINAD.
I'll be interested in Abe's take on the Topping, as he's not the type to have the measurements dictate his impressions.
