Well my amp finally arrived. My new DAC is certainly burned in. So seriously, does the amp need burn in time? What do I expect?

Initial impression out of the box... Certainly not night and day. The bass is much better. Quality and quantity. I expected that since matrix has high impedance. While not drastic, just richer more full. I'll need more time for sure.

The amp has some enjoyable color. Give it time to grow on you.

Agree, give it some time. What headphones are you using?

Hello!

Just got my new amp ...

"was afraid to have the purple version instead black" ... but was just the transparent film giving that purple color! :xf_cool:

I will pair with HD650 / Equinox XLR cable and my dac.
Dude... I did the same thing! 😊

I got grey but it looks purplish in pics... So when I opened the box 😱

No... The grey is dark grey... Awesome. So happy.

You notice difference in sound depending of the gain.
I have impression high gain give more punch.
The gain switch is really a gain or just attenuate less ?
Definitely a huge difference between the two. I only use high gain.
