ps audio pwd mkii preamp break in time?


  I have the psd mkii dac and was using it thru a preamp but the other day I decided to hook it straight into my amp.   It sounds really good and for the most part as good as going thru preamp exect it is just a little bit more lean in the midrange.  Any have any experience with switching there pwd direct into the amp?  Will the preamp stage need some time to breakin?  thanks

Just a note of caution because of the DSD recommendation.  I had a PWDII and swtiched to the DSD and it actually didn't have enough gain for me.  I had to run it in the high gain mode to get close to enough volume and could still top it out somewhere a bit below concert level.  The high gain mode also increases the noise floor so that I could hear a very significant hiss out of my system.  I ended up going back to the PWD.  Coincident SEIIIs and 300b monos with the DAC direct into the amps.
