Oh yes...I also recently tried NuForce Ref9SE V2 and Bel Canto Ref1000 on the Sonata III. The Bel Canto had more "slam", but the NuForce were more refined in the mids and highs.
Tvad,
In my application, the Nuforce had more slam down low with greater punch, impact and visceral bass than the Bel Canto Ref 1K it replaced. More transparent, almost invisible and undetectable sonic signature. I had mine burned in for a good week or two before making such observation. Not sure if you had your Nuforce optimized and properly burned in when you made your above observation
