Well call me crazy, but this burn-in business is driving me nuts. After I got all excited about the palpable improvement with the burn-in, I'm now experiencing some degradation in the sound quality with prolonged burn-in. I know I sound like a spoiled brat, but my only criterion is what I'm hearing, and right now, after about a week of burn-in time, my Bushmaster has again mellowed out and is sounding wimpy compared to the Caiman. Switching back and forth, I'm now hearing the Caiman kicking ass on the Bushman. That wasn't the case only two days ago!
So what's going on here? Why does the Bushman keep changing and morphing and flipping between being all authoritative sounding only to later on fizzle and mellow out? How much longer before it stabilizes?
Don't you just hate it when you cannot detect where the post ends and a signature line begins?

mcr,
I experienced exactly the same change after about a week. It turned soft and mushy, my BM went south from there and eventually shat itself.....are you getting any crackles yet or difficulty finding sources automatically.
Bizarrely mine has just started having an issue auto-finding my source...
