Title: New Spectrum Analyzer RIGOL ... but cool prices (joke)
Post by: max-bit on July 21, 2014, 06:03:05 am

RIGOL presented new spectrum analyzers:

- DSA832 - price ~ 4800 Euro ( 6500 $ )  up to 3,2 GHz
- DSA832-TG - price ~6000 Euro ( 8100 $ )  up to 3,2 GHz + tracking generator
- DSA875 - price ~ 5850 Euro  ( 7800 $ ) up to 7,5 GHz
- DSA875-TG - price  ~ 7000 Euro ( 9450 $ ) up to 7,5 GHz  + tracking generator
Price does not include tax.

Prices quite high (especially compared with the model 815).
High prices discourage the purchase of analyzers.

Short question: did you compare the specs?
From spec Point of view the DSA832 /875 have not much in common with DSA815 except the name and the chassis.
IMO they should better have used a different series name. Now everyone compares pricing to DSA815.
