PS Audio Direct Stream Memory Player

Sorry should have read: definitely a significant improvement.

Just received the PS DS Memory Player. 

Is it save to assume like most Audio components it will take a couple of hundred hours to break in?
I was thinking of using a usb flash drive to play music continuously, or do I need a disk spinning to break it in?

ozzy, I believe that all electronics need a break-in period however other than that I don't know the answer to your question. I was told by the US representative that repairs the MBL products that a new CD drive doesn't need any break-in time. I'll bet the Memory Player will sound really good right out of the box and will improve a bit with use. I know you already know what I just said but... ;-)

lak,

Thanks for your help. I also don’t think the laser needs break in time.

So, I think using a usb with burn in tracks on it playing continually will break in the electronics, caps etc.

It was extremely cold when I received it yesterday so I only used it a couple of hours later in the day. So, lets see how it progresses.

I also ordered a SR Blue fuse, a Bybee IQSE and a Wireworld Platinum HDMI for it. I already placed a few SR ECT’s in it already.
