There are PSUs, DMMs, SAs, VNAs and a whole host of test equipment from Rigol. Also a lot more scopes. You disliked a piece of TM equipment, nothing more, nothing less. We all know the SDS2000X-Plus is a great instrument. Often, "Being a fan", and almost always "hating" are just not rational stances, just comfortable ones. In any case, look at recent Rigol threads. There are more pics from Siglent 'scopes than Rigol ones in some of them. The fact that you don't do it doesn't mean it hasn't been done. Edit: I might be mistaken, and I might have some kind of personal bias based on the manners of some users, my own interpretation of posts, etc. What I meant is than I am not biased towards any of the brands because I'm not invested at all, neither in Rigol equipment nor Siglent. I want a 12 bit scope, and it will most likely be a Siglent one. But I don't have any kind of attachment or feelings (positive or negative) towards the brands. They are just the ones I can afford new. --- End quote --- 🤣🤣🤣 I don't need you to take my Rigol hate seriously, it isn't that serious. If it makes you feel better, l also hate their design choices for their UI, I hate that they release unfinished alpha level toys, etc. For me, there's plenty to hate about them. Also, hate in this case is an exaggeration, I strongly dislike them, but hate types out faster. 😉 I have lots of positive feelings towards Siglent. I've had excellent experiences across a number of devices, and their support, for years. My worst experience with Siglent is them offering only a 50% discount to calibrate a DMM I bought used...and let's face it, that's still pretty damn generous. |

[/quote] +1 We use Rigol and Siglent, what was appealing was the possible SW upgrades, on Both Brands They have their own quirk, i learn to navigate thru them, 12 bit was due for a long time at cheap pricing 1 brand output a 12bit, the other will ... just a matter of time, one 14 bits you know the drill What is important to me is : the brand is open to comments / acknowledge and upgrade their FW to resolve bugs, rapidly not a year or two later and yes after reading 3 pages it seems more a fan boy battle between brands ??? |

As per the "unfinished alpha level toys", this is exactly the problem. That's a value judgement coming out of hate or strong dislike. The new Rigol range, with all it's flaws, has excellent tools for basic 'scope use, and then more. It's the equivalent of calling someone an idiot or some other insult more or less elaborated. Just not useful at all. Siglent has gotten a lot of that from "A" brands only users, and I find that extremely unhelpful too, and akin to the way a sports team fan talks about competitor sports teams. |
