Short comparison between Rigol DSA815-TG and Siglent SSA3021X Spectrum Analyzer I had both devices only for a few hours together on my bench, thus there was not real detailed review possible. However it was enough time for a quick comparison Conclusion Basically it is a give and take between both devices.
The Siglent costs forty-odd percent more and is approx. forty-odd percent more powerful. If you have the money then get the Siglent but the Rigol is still more than enough oscilloscope for most hobbyists.
The new Siglent SDS800X HD series scopes look nice but past my budget of $700. Besides, they just came out. I would rather the professionals/experts find the bugs first. As an amateur it is hard enough to know if I properly measured something vs. the device under test really does have such and such issue vs. some unknown bug.
Hi, I appreciate my membership being accepted on this forum. I recently purchased a new Siglent SDS1052DL+ O-Scope. New out of the box it failed to boot. On power on it stops at the boot splash screen. I have attempted pulsing the Math button on boot, but after numerous attempts I still don’t...
Back to the Siglent momentum, while either a Rigol or Siglent scope will open new learning and doing opportunities for you beyond the no doubt excellent experience you have gained from the Tektronix 465M, what I think might tip the scale toward Siglent is the phenomenal user community here.
