SDS5034X vs SDS2104X Plus
Sueco:
OK, I'll have to re-evaluate and maybe choose between an SDS2000X HD (which was my original choice) or an SDS5000X. The 5000X looks like a more professional piece of equipment, however 12bits scopes seem to be trending and for power analysis applications the extra DC accuracy is very much welcome. Having hardware ERES with 12bit ADCs seems like overkill, but who am I to complain, and I don't expect to decode any ARINC buses anytime soon which I think is (for now) only available on the 5000X series firmware, so it seems you're all quite right and a 2000X HD should be the choice balancing all the pros of it against the 5000X

Hi,
ARINC will be avaible on the HD with the next firmware update.
Same with the four mathchannels.

Interesting. ;D
In my opinion, there are three advantages the 5000X have against the 2000X HD.
More max. Samplerate.
More max. Bandwith
Extended probe interface.
If 500Mhz max is enough for you, go for the HD.
Then the samplerate won´t matter because of the lower bandwith.
Extended probe interface is only a benefit when you plan to buy a suitable probe.

Yes and no.
If you need active probe support sure however the newer HD platform is professional grade too if the lesser BW can meet requirements.
One thing where SDS2000X HD excels, is very low fan noise.

I really want to tease you about listing that as a benefit...but I've been listening to the fan on my 3055 for the last few days, all day...so yeah, that's pretty cool. 😉

Wait until your first impression of SDS6000A boot :scared: then it quietens much to be similar to other Siglent DSO's where SDS2000X HD is still king for low fan noise.
