Sabai,
I agree that the Power 3 sounded great right out of the bag, showing its charicter nicely! But In my system, this one (so far) Power 3, after tens of hours, lost some detail and bass and went a lil soft for a period of time. I moved it to run it in for a week elsewhere, then brought it back to its home on my AMR dac, and it has been back to its true character again...
My burn-in has been going slow due to life lately and I am still only around 300 hours but I am LOVING what this PC --and the HiDiamond reference level aes/ebu digital cable-- has done to my system!
But I definitely did experience a dip in this PC's traits during the first 100 or so hours.
I am getting a new rack soon, so that may put off the purchasing of a couple more Power 3's but I do intend to do so... I am just so glad that I believed your, and others words here and took a chance with HiDiamond. A hunch that has paid of very nicely!
