The V1 seems to exert better control as it burns in; I wouldn't say that it's necessarily less dynamic, but it is doing better with very complex music. It sounds less smeared and confused when the going gets tough. Mine has been running almost continuously since Wednesday, so pushing towards 100 hours now.
I can't help with Mac playback as I'm using a PC with JRiver MC18. Presumably you've spotted the set-up guides on Naim's website?
PS; nice headphones!
Grado RS1i and Audio Technica W1000x. The mix is perfect with V1 connected to the Mapletree Super II. Maybe a lil too dynamic for my taste when the RS1i is connected directly into the V1. But its still early, I'll let it burn in. I also added BitPerfect to iTunes and its great. Only thing, I cant run it in "integer" mode. I checked: I'm running OSx10.8 and the V1 is on the list of the ones BitPerfect recognizes ( I sure hope so because Naim promotes it on the data base). I wonder why I can't....
