If they do, I'm wondering about the measurements companies put out. MTX rates their amps THD as < .1, but it seems most other companies rate their THD as < .01,.03,.085,.02 etc. at least a power of 10 difference. What gives? Is THD that important of a measurement? Is there a noticeable difference between 2 amps with different THD?

My brother and another of my friends have MTX amps and are very happy with them. As far as the THD ratings I believe that any of those ratings you listed would be inaudible to the human ear anyway. I used to know where it started to be noticible but I can't remember excatly. I know those figures would fall below what you should be able to notice unless your superman or something.

 

I have an RT2600. The box says .1 but the birth sheet was much lower than that. I can't remeber what it was for sure but it was alot less than one.

 

With that low THD, you will not hear an audible difference. Good amps.

 

Yup. On mids/highs and such most all people can't start hearing distortion until 2-3% ( a few claim to hear 1%). I think for subs that number goes up to like 10%....

Companies bragging about ultra low THD's are just trying to sell some more amps to the uninformed.

 

through my experience, most all MTX amps i've used on subs were great, now with there class D monoblocks, their even better.
