About this report
This is a report for professionals with a suite of tests for line output devices. Alternative version of the report for "dummies" in development.
One device can have multiple reports in different modes and with different a suite of tests.
A suite of tests for the line-out can be used for headphone or speaker output if in this mode it is possible to use the device as a source for connecting an external amplifier or if such a test suite can give more information about the implementation of the DAC in the device.

The table shows a most important technical characteristics of FiiO X3 III
*Center channel headphone is received by averaging between left and right channels
Test conditions
- Measured by RAA with ADC from E-MU1616m
- Difference ... 0 dBFS out level FiiO X3 III versus ADC E-MU1616m 0 dBFS input level is -13,61 dB (value level for left and right channels)
- During tests RAA measuring complex was used galvanic isolated power transformer and was excluded the effect of ground loop in the spectra
