I received my single nonSilver Phantom few days ago and on first listen, was floored by the bass but the upper to mid range was feeling flat (due to mono?) and overly bright. Naturally I thought it needs some burn-in. Loaded up XLO System Burn-In disc and let it go on for 2 days. Sat down for a listen this morning and noticed no difference. Swap out the existing ugly yellow power cable and plugged my custom made IEC power cable. Feels slightly better in terms of dynamics but still overly bright. Do I have a dud ?

Current: Phantom Silvers, Oppo 105D (Toslink), Raspberry Pi + Digi+, ROON
Pre-Phantom: PenAudio Rebel2, Nuforce MCH-2C5, Oppo 105D (Analog)
