I don't have a replacement 950 yet. There was only one prototype that was circulated. I had it for a day, and measured/listened to it. My findings are in this thread from yesterday, I believe. It basically has a _real_ improvement of about 12db, which is quite big. I am familiar with the ICs and other parts they were replacing, and I can see no reason that there will be any variation between units to speak of. Why your's and mine measured so wildly different is anybody's guess. Once they get the units modded in Malaysia, We should get them, and live in blessed silence - aside from the car crashes, explosions, and other acts of wanton violence
