Gdhal - my current reference is my Light Harmonic Davinci2 DAC being fed via a Light Harmonic Lightspeed 20G usb cable from a fully tweaked out Memory Player MP64.
It is the best red book (as well as high res and DSD) I have ever heard. It’s natural, dynamic, spacious, engaging, layered and just gives that lost in the music moment over and over again. Yes, it’s that good! For those that wonder, it is the most analog digital I have ever heard. It sounds more like a turntable then a digital source.
That said, there are still some DAC’s and servers I have not heard and can not, yet, comment on. I will continue to try dacs and servers until I have heard everything there is to hear. And just about then, a new technology or product will come out that will peak my interest and this will go on and on. Lol.
Guido, you were my Sensei who taught me the importance of a lengthy bun in process. I don’t listen to anything critically until it has 750-1000 hours on it. Yes, 1000 hours. It makes a difference. So I don’t doubt at all that a new circuit would require a burn in period.
I am going to run a new circuit. I have already ordered my Square D 20 amp breaker, I will use one of my EP ground filters (they really do work), ordered a 30 foot run of cryo treated 10/2 Romex with ground, Furutech GTX-D-NCF outlet, and the matching NFC plate and cover. I will plug a space heater onto it for a month and let it burn in. 👍🏻
