I have read that they do need to be cycled a few times to reach full capacity. I use li ion in my cameras, and it definitely proves true with them. In the D12, I also found this to be true.

Hi Jam... No, that's not correct. There's no memory, and in fact full cycling is somewhat bad for the battery (so don't run it all the way down to maximize life...)
From Battery University:
Avoid frequent full discharges because this puts additional strain on the battery. Several partial discharges with frequent recharges are better for lithium-ion than one deep one. Recharging a partially charged lithium-ion does not cause harm because there is no memory. (In this respect, lithium-ion differs from nickel-based batteries.) Short battery life.. ...is mainly cause by heat rather than charge / discharge patterns.
Edit: Not sure why your camera experience differs, but it doesn't follow the engineering background for the technology that I've seen...
I have a good external power source for the Monica II and with that get more transparency and generally, better sound but with fresh eneloop batteries, the Monica II sounds very good. I have read that a number of people actually prefer the II to the latest version. I asked about a dual dac version a while back and was told no way, to bad.

A source for that. You should share the read because you suggested that Yeo at diyparadise's current product is a step backwards. If it is your opinion, fine. (I do not know if you have heard Monica 3?) Instead you claim a multitude of opinions from a printed source. I believe that you have a responsibility to back that up.
