@yabaVR, I don't think it has anything to do with cheap digital copies. I created the copies from CDs that I bought. The CDs are from major labels (although that is not always a sign of quality). The copies are bit perfect to the original. As for the D, I wouldn't be so sure. These are clearly digital artifacts that I hear. They're not present in all recordings. They're definitely D; not necessarily in the Pro, but somewhere between the CD/recording, iTunes/Qobuz and the Pro.
@Will, the speakers are B&W 805. I chose them (a long time ago) for their transparency and adequacy to play classical music. We are all musicians in the familly and what we hear on the Pro/805 sounds very much like we play; when it works. The tone I mean, because were we as gifted as the talented musicians in the recordings, we would be travelling the world playing on stage instead of listening to the Pro.
