I try to compare my K2 to others when I get the chance. This helps show
up flaws that wouldn't otherwise be apparent. For example, imine wasn't
as "quiet" as had been reported by others, and I traced the problem to
my having damaged the mixer on installation.
The MDS was fine, but something (the modulation products from other
signals perhaps) were causing a harsh noise. The DSP also started
workiong better, as it had always had more noise to contend with.
The funny thing is that I had ordered a replacement mixer (not a cheap
part!) but since it looked difficult to remove, had put it off, because
the MDS test was ok. It was the compare-and-listen test that told me
something was wrong.
