Hello Peter,
Yes, this explanation has been suggested before.
I've gone back and forth several times with my DAC, Line Stage and amplifier and the differences heard remain consistent. My friend whom I mentioned earlier has a very different system and room compared to mine yet the findings are very similar. The changes are not profound (no need for hyperbole ) but are quite noticeable. As this thread and other past threads have demonstrated, some agree and some don't. I have nothing more to offer.
Charles,
