The BM is more analogue sounding and but lacks the soundstage and highs and lows of the PM Caiman. In my system the BM still sounds a little harsh. The BM output is much higher than the passive modded Caiman, which might also be a factor. My poor old Linn Kairn pre-amp could not handle the output of the Gator board but the BM does not seem to be distorting like it did with the Gator.

I am using EDO 0.7 with the SBT before and after.

I am just hoping it gets more rounded with some more burn-in... I might try the Maplin PSU to see if that makes a difference.
If the active Caimen was overdriving the pre input of the Kairn then the BM will do the same, the outputs are standard line level 2v. If the Kairn can be overdriven by a standard 2v line level input then its not up to much or could be faulty.
