The table shows a most important technical characteristics of Musatoff HA-4
*Center channel is received by data averaging between the left and right channels
Test conditions
- For record of test signals RAA was used ADC: E-MU 1616m
- The difference between maximum levels output unloaded Musatoff HA-4 and input level 0 dBFS E-MU1616m is -3,03 dB (value level for left and right channels)
- The signal was played to the amplifier with DAC: Audiolab M-DAC
- Was exposed to the level of the signal: Optimal (none maximum) level
- The bit size/format of the test signal: PCM 24 bit
- During tests RAA software-hardware measuring complex was used galvanic isolated power transformer and was excluded the effect of ground loop in the spectra

Measurements of Musatoff HA-4 were carried out by Roman Kuznetsov on the hardware-software complex RAA.
The Musatoff HA-4 test was conducted as a black box test, without regard to cost and prestige. This is the basic principle for making measurements, measurement reports and developing tests in RAA.
I believe that it is important to do not make an absolute assessment of the device, but an aggregate assessment when working together with a headphones and taking into account external factors. This allows you to effectively reveal the potential of the entire set of devices or to make a more optimal choice of components.
