The device badly needs a full tutorial both in text and video. It attracts people who aren't experts in measurements and electronics yet it is more complicated/complex to use than Audio Precision. Such tutorial needs to cover all the corner cases and issues involved in it. Above is (one of...

Yes to first question. Unknown for the second. AP does have a way to disable the auto-scalar but that is to speed up measurements, not to bypass it.

I went up to 4.2 volts and it made no difference. Anything higher and it would no longer be "nominal 4 volts" and would make the comparison to other products unfair.

Oops. I had measured it but forgot to put it in the review. it is there now: The dashed lines are with 4.5 volt range.

I measured it by just plugging it in. The thing came with no documentation. :( And my googling didn't get me anywhere either.

Most likely you can. You may lose some of the gain of the mic pre if its output impedance is high.

Not your fault. :) It can be used as an ADC. You just have to be mindful of the fact that it puts a heavier load on the source device than a standard audio interface. For many sources feeding it, this should be OK. But not guaranteed. The low input impedance was a decision made to make...

Reserved for @AdamG to kindly post the specs. Manufacturer Specifications:

This is a review and detailed measurements of the E1DAC Cosmos ADCiso specialized Analog to Digital Converter (ADC). The grade "B" was kindly purchased by a member and costs US $179. As you see, you have dual balanced inputs. Back side has two USB-C inputs: one for power and one for computer...

It is and a point I made to Eric when I quoted that law. However, I would imagine this sets the atmosphere under which such cases are looked at. My review is different than other kind of journalism.

Very nice looking!

Hard to comprehend the scale of this engine:

It is coconut coir.

You can't be serious. By that notion I can have an amplifier with 0.0001 milliwatts of power and have any SPL I want to have? Given the same drive level, higher sensitivity will produce higher SPL. Lower the power and SPL will drop.

Common fallacy in these arguments. There is no such thing as "switch from 600 to 32 ohm." A lot of things will change in that transformation.
