Just unpacked mine and setting up now. What burn technique do you use. Volume etc.
Using burn in cable which I set to normal listening volume with some IEMs. Normally I would just listen to music to burn in but using the DX340.

I used high gain but does not matter. I got this unit to make guides so SQ not that important as its not mine.

I am using the Mango mode. I like Mango and the Android mode. As the 260MK2 burns in, it opens up nicely, and to me, is different sounding compared to the original DX260. It has more separation and somehow a more liquid sound, which I guess is even more analog. Good dynamics and detail. I have been using the Utopia and some IEMs. I really like it with IEMs as the sound gets out of your head. It is also fast to cue up and to scan.

I do not think they made any tuning changes. If they did they did not advertise they did. How long have you had your unit? The Bloom loaner I have was one of the first shipped out. I am letting it burn in while using Dx340. I now have the Img FW for it.

Putting my MK2 through it's paces and am very happy so far. Just got a pair of Focal Celestee and they are exactly what I wanted. Also tested the Noble Fokus Apollo and the DCA Aeon Noire 2s. The Noble were enjoyable, the DCA seems like they need more power and the celestee are just right for me so I'll be selling the other two. Looking forward to your guide so I can maximize the enjoyment. 😎

I am letting the Bloom loaner unit burn in for at least 100 hours before doing any optimization. The Flash guide is now available

Hey Paul
I understand that you won't upgrade android version for OG, but will you still fix bug?
The charging issue after using DAC mode is still there, will you fix this?
I will have this tested. Thank you.
