Taken from Rigol site.

LOL they are comparing to old SDS2000X that is not made anymore....

There is a good chance the chart was made when the MSO5000 was initially released.  I think the non-Plus SDS2000X was still current then.  Plus it's marketing.

It's no worse than that "Siglent vs. Rigol DS1054Z" chart that used to get posted here endlessly.

I'm sure Tautech still has a copy somewhere....

Oh, wait, here it is:

What do you mean by this comment?

That table compares current SDS1104X-E to still current DS1054Z. All the time people compare them (including you). They belong to same less then 500 USD scopes class. DS1000Z is slightly cheaper, SDS1104X-E is more powerful in some ways. They are both good devices and still in production.

I wasn't commenting on behalf of advocating for Siglent. I was pointing to fact that one of the scopes Rigol compares to is discontinued, so comparison is useless...

Speaking of stalkers. Stop it, please. If you have an intelligent response to my general question, a correction of factually incorrect statement, or you need to respond to question directly to you, then respond to my post. Otherwise it just creepy.... Seriously... Please.

Best,

Are people trawling the Rigol web site looking for these things?

A piece of outdated information on the Rigol site!! OMG!!!! The must be mocked on EEVBLOG!!!!!!


If they were comparing it to the new HDO1000 it would be news, but....  :palm:

Again,
please stop.

Table was posted by somebody else in course of discussion. I read it and realized it is outdated.
You have problems. It is called paranoia... There is no conspiracy..

I posted with the intent to capture a reaction like that...  :popcorn:

I just didn't thought I would catch Fungus but...

BTW, the info is surely old (which is different from fake) but it appeared in a new link inside the site.

Either way, these comparison tables are pretty useless anyway. There simply is too much information missing to base a purchase decission upon.
There are small lies, big lies and then there is what is on the screen of your oscilloscope.

Listen here Fungus, you are an idiot nothing more nothing less.

The link to the comparison chart you posted was prepared by a professional EE whom has owned several Rigol and Siglent DSO’s in the last decade or more.
I know of no one here more qualified to make such a chart, no one !

Stop the personal attacks as they only point to your significant inability to have a technical discussion based on fact.

Lastly you have been put on notice for such ongoing behaviour that has only polluted many quality replies and this forum in general.
Avid Rabid Hobbyist.
Some stuff seen @ Siglent HQ cannot be shared.

What does that have to do with it being fair, complete, unbiased....?

(or otherwise)

Yep.

(unless they agree with some sort of personal agenda, then they get reposted endlessly)

If it's the same person that "warned" me in a thread, himself!, this is silly and now locked.
