I am not an engineer - but I still have a right to raise these issues (concerning "testers" like Stereophile, etc.)
-Don't show SID distortion figures or high-order non-linear distortion at lower levels.
-Quote at a single frequency.
-(Makers) rate distortion in volts - not power. Don't convert to real numbers, which would be much higher. (James Bongiorno's webpage talked about this).
-(Power amp) SNR is shown w/o specifying power level or methodology. (Audioholics the source).
-(Preamp) output level data shown w/o specifying load impedance. (Audioholics again).
**Not a good list - but my "speaker" problems (to be posted) are even worse
Thank You
