Specs are near-meaningless. At best, advisory.
Don't worry about them. Would you junk out an amp you liked with a 90db snr and replace it with an amp you Didn't like with a 110db snr? Didn't think so.
from wavetrader:
If you have equivalently low levels of noise but when music is playing you have within it some correlated noise that follows with the music (harmonically or IMD related) then this gear will sound much worse (even if they both share the same "on paper" S/N ratio)"
Just what does above quote mean in standard English?
