Heh, I couldn't agree more with MichiGoon about the Bridge. First impression was extreme disappointment. Everything sounded so foreign, most especially the stuff that I was most familiar with and had listened to almost exclusively for about 2 months before Canjam. Took me all of 3 weeks of daily listening to fully acclimate and adjust to the new sound.
I said it somewhere else but it bears repeating. I spent every evening for 2 solid weeks tuning my Denon 2ks for the perfect bass response and level, without sacrificing anything else in any other area. I made some significant improvements, through luck and chance of course, just by trying different methods and materials and listening to the same track over and over. I did not recieve the Bridge until the same day I left for Canjam, and suffice it to say I was busy doing other stuff while I was there, so didn't really get to listen much to my stuff until I got home and setup again. Like MichiGoon on CA, most impressive is the bass. I have never heard the definition elsewhere. I won't vomit audiophool adjectives all over your thread, but bottom line is, I like it. I will eventually try a HiFace someday soon, simply because my audio creed is "try it and listen for yourself." Who knows, maybe because of what you're(and everyone else, you too Regal) doing here, there will be a modded version offered by M2tech, or an offspring company.
Anyways, just thought you might like to know that I totally identified with MichiGoon when I read his post on CA.
It's all good, and to me we are spoiled rotten with way too much stuff to listen to and try. We are so fortunate.
