Serge,
Top marks for being honest and consistent, but given how easy it is for manufacturers to mislead with specs, not to mention the general dearth of meaningful specs in the first place, how can you be sure that the specs aren't leading you to the wrong conclusions?

Whilst that could happen, so far it hasn't. I'm also in the habit of making my own measurements, and if a product didn't meet it's spec, I'd take it back. Again, that hasn't happened yet, everything I've bought, from Quad 34/FM4, Nakamichi, through Meridian kit to more recently a fair amount of Behringer kit, they all did what I expected of them.
About the only disappointment was a number of inexpensive A-D / D-A converters which I found didn't meet their specs for distortion. They all distorted badly on the analogue inputs which meant one couldn't get to 0dBFS cleanly.
