I noticed that Event actually shows distortion figures in percent for
the whole speaker system and not just the amplifier. Also, the figures
are better than I'd have expected. But why the 3rd harmonic?

Just a heads-up that the AVI DM10 will be available soon.
As for me, I'm happy with my DM5s, and I could never afford the DM10 at

Have you ever considered Nubert speakers? Their new nuPro line is very
good. I'vr got a pair of nuPro a200 herr, and they handle everything I

If bookshelf speakers have a built in DAC, the cool thing would be for
them to have a USB connection to a subwoofer, and the combo optimizing
crossover frequencies via an app.
