I've had easier conversations with game producers who speak no English at all and we had to use pictograms to discuss sound mixes. I honestly don't know if the OP was trying to offend because I don't even understand it (and the "fun with formatting" isn't helping.)

I think the basics is he wants to compare the output of a TDM system vs an HDX native with the same plugins. Problem is that RTAS/TDM plugins are not directly portable to AAX format so the plugins are inherently different. On top of that, the mixer on TDM was 48 bit fixed (with 8 bit accumulator) and AAX native is 64 bit float.

AAX will win everyday unless the plugin developer screwed up massively. Higher precision, lower noise floor.
