Hi Mapman. I have had similar experiences. Initially, changes may sound like an improvement, but sometimes, especially with gain in high frequency extension, the presentation is more forward and overly bright. Similarly, with greater emphasis in the bottom end, extended listening may expose a heavier, looser bass, which can also affect the mids. This is why I often have issue with a/b comparisons. Living with a new component for awhile, not ignoring break-in and synergy, is likely necessary for fair assessment.
