Anyone finished burning in their TC-7520 yet?

No offense but you guys must have incredible ears , Its very difficult (for me) to hear the diff between the 7520 and my old CA AZUR cd player , i can hear it but only just.

another thing to consider is the different surroundings and equipment we all use, some are in big rooms and some aren't (me = mid sized)....some have revealing speakers (MA Gold Ref 20 = quite revealing) others have more neutral gear.....some use headphones exclusively and therefore are probably more prone to heavy variance than those with speakers - there's alot of variables.

i wouldn't call the difference between the 7510 6/4 and the 7520 night and day (that would be foolish and a disservice to the 7510) but it's more pronounced than i expected with more bass and cleaner resolution all around - without waxing lyrical it's more energetic than the 7510.....i've certainly never heard MJ's Thriller album sound so lively. can't comment about the CA Azur as i don't own one.

I just get VERY skeptical when people hear these huge differences between power supplies

i for one didn't state a huge difference when changing psu's but my first reaction was that bass felt a touch deeper, this could have been the actual DAC bedding in as i changed power after roughly 80-100hrs on the unit and until i have more time to test between the new and old it's hard for me to really gauge anything.

Sorry if i upset anyone , the 7520 is a lovely dac for sure but c'mon get a grip lads ,,,,

it's all subjective at the end of the day and i doubt you have upset anyone, only you and your ears are the things that matter.
