He used test tones, an SPL, and adjusted the volume on his pre-amp which he said had something like 102 steps of volume adjustment.
A few people on that forum said that wasn't accurate and therefore any differences he heard, were due to the level difference between players.

But the purchaser liked the SA-10!


So do I... I currently have it driving HiFiMan HE-1000v2s from its headphone socket! Sure beats SA-7S1 for SQ, but that doesn't have headphone output.

Not sure how long I have it and I nearly died last Friday (really) so may not be able to write very much about the SA-10 to help others. We shall see. So far, very impressive.
