Hi Wingstrike,
I would continue to burn it in before you make any final calls on it. Apparently on the LCD 3 thread many people that own them believe that the burn in hours are necessary to make that headphone sing.

@2000impreza: I liked the audiospace at the meet. Unfortunately I did not get to hear the dac section but I've heard the speaker part a few times in the store previously which made some efficient speakers sing. All in all I love the fact that it can be flexible as a hp amp, dac and speaker amp. The best part about it is that I bet you could roll some pretty nice tubes into it to make it sound even better!

I was really impressed with the LCD3s at the meet, so much that I bought one. After spending 2 days with it, I feel less impressed with them. Maybe because they haven't been burned in yet. Maybe i need better amplification, balanced amplification at the meet sounded VERY nice. I don't know. To me, my Rev 2s sounds more detailed. The bass of the LCD3s extended deeper and hits harder, but I think rev2s are tighter. Compared to my HD800s, they sound even less detailed.
I'm going to burn them in more, listen more, and maybe do the TP mod. I'll report back with my findings
The Mini Galaxy 1 to me, sounded very nice with the HD800s, but not so much with the Audeze headphones, especially the LCD3. Maybe too warm? The LCD3s are already very smooth and thick sounding, so i'm guessing it's not a good match with tubes.
