it can be because of some system matching issues.
You also do not explain where there are sonic difference that you prefer compared to the other units.
budget diy tube preamp beating many expensive preamps... problem with my system?
My bottlehead moreplay so far has beaten the ARC ref 5 SE, Allnic L3000 v2 and CJ ET5 (and maybe doge 8). I just don't really get it. Is there something about my system thats limiting the peformance of these other pieces or is moreplay just insanely good ?
