The soundstage has opened up and the hint of congestion has gone. Overall it's very nice but still nowhere near that magical sound of Jon's machine. I suppose I just need to be patient which is easier said than done!

Guillaume,
I'am probably around 150 hours on my side, do you run all the time DPM off? Also I notice that SAM on but at 0% is producing the best sound at this moment for me with my 802 D3 and wondering if this is what you are experiencing also with your speakers at this point in time, any potential link to the fact that Devialet is delivering the Od'A in this configuration out of the box...

H there,
I'm keeping SAM at 100% because that is what I am used to in my setup. Yes DPM is off.
I will experiment more with SAM once everything is properly run in and stabilised. I am hoping a few more days now but I will keep it running 24/7 anyway. I find the Devialet sounds best when it is always on.
Have you noticed many changes in the first 150 hours?
Guillaume
I have not notice many changes yet, I did not had the opportunity to hear an Od'A with a lot of hours like you so not sure what to expect just hoping from what you describe it will get even better. May be the ones like Swissbear and others who have been enjoying their Od'A for some time could share their experience and tell us if they had major improvements and after how many hours?
Guys could we get your feedback here? Cheers!
