I would expect that if someone performed a lab test to verify "conformance"
it would be very common to "exceed" specific spec requirements,
even if only by a tenth of a dB.
I've found it fairly rare to perfectly "meet" a particular
spec requirement.
So when they say they "exceeded" some unspecified requirement by
some unspecified amount, I chalk it up as pure marketing HYPE...

Actually, they claim that they *exceeded* A/74. Although many older
receivers have exceeded parts of A/74 already, but never all of it, it's
still good to see that now the hype is about exceeding A/74, rather than
just meeting it.
What I'd like to know is what about A/74 they exceeded that previous
ones had not exceeded. But if it ain't for public consumption, then I
guess we can only speculate.
