# Third Order Distortion @ 60 Hz
*- Spurious Responses > 20 KHz < -85 dB
Discussion Of Results
The Toslink output measurements included 2 meters of commodity RG-59 coaxial cable, 5 meters of Hosa Toslink cable, and a Fostex COP-1 Toslink to SPDIF converter.
This player seems to have a few spurious responses to simple test signals, most of which are at relatively low levels and high frequencies. More complex signals did not seem to generate more spurious responses.
