THD + Noise In all cases THD is essentially unmeasurable, being less than the inherent noise of the amplifier until the output level exceeds +20dBu. Note: All THD+N measurements at gains above +30dB made using 40dB r esistive pad to minimise effect of generator noise at low signal levels. Gain +18dB, input level +0dBu, output level +18dBu 20Hz to 1[...]

Appendix D – Calibration Information The XLogic Mic Amp is factory calibrated and should only need calibration if a potentiometer or other component has been replaced or if it is suspected that ther e is a problem with calibration.
