I also recall the tail of Guillaume's O'dA, where he had OAC's fully run in demo unit on loan for a couple of weeks, then his own O'dA, after which there was maybe two weeks of burn in woes followed by eventual joy.
I actually had Jon's OdA for a couple of months so became very accustomed to its sound. When we disconnected his and installed my brand new units there was a considerable collapse in the soundstage and the image became more strident and forward. It was quite a dramatic change. It was also quite thin sounding. It took about 2 or 3 weeks of 24/7 playback for my OdA to sound as good as Jon's.
