SOHW-1653S vs. SA300 - Page 4

For checking exactly what the SOHW-1653S reports, we used three different media, burned with other recorders. The three media have been measured using the well known AudioDev SA300 DVD CATS system at 1X.

The drive is capable of reporting PI/PIF errors, so we will compare those measurements at various reading speeds:

• 3~8X CAV
• 2~6X CAV

Please note that the posted results are only valid for the specific tested LiteON SOHW-1653S drive. Using other drives, even another SOHW-1653S, can produce totally different results. Be aware!

Not even with this disc could the LiteON SOHW-1653S provide similar results to the SA300 system. In all the graphs above, the SOHW-1653S drive reports higher error level values than those reported by the SA300 system.
