It's not b@llocks... how can you PROVE the Caiman didn't change? (indeed, how can you prove anything did/didn't change?) There's only one way to prove it (one way or another) and it doesn't involve listening to it :-) Quote: " I did exactly that, and holy smokes, did these three days of burn in make a huge difference. After three days of constant playing, the character of the sound delivered through the Caiman had completely changed. I was now listening to a very authoritative source producing very enjoyable musical playback without a trace of previous nervousness and indecisiveness. I couldn't believe what a difference three days make, and even though I couldn't find a plausible explanation for this phenomenon, I fell in love with this DAC nevertheless.
