Does a new cd transport require break-in time?
Very strange that the Gungnir doesn’t sound better with the Cambridge CXC once I hooed up mine to my McIntosh dac the improvement was immediate and substantial with explosive dynamics and huge soundstage maybe it’s due my Tellurium Black coax cabl... 
New CDP or standalone DAC...?

Those who can't 'see' the difference between cables will never admit that their hearing is not skilled/ sensitive enough It's easier for them to jump to the false conclusion that all cables are the same.

I got reply from Cambridge Audio customer servise that it needs about 50 hours break-in time but my CXC was very good from the beginning and over time didn't notice any change .
