I guess I'm the only one that thinks my A2 sounded amazing right out the box (a noticeable upgrade from Hugo 2).. I've had it running 24/7 for over 2 months now, can't confidently say I hear a difference compared to day 1 but then again I've been too occupied enjoying music so perhaps I haven't been listening critically enough.
Good post. My guess is that there are so many factors involved that one can really only describe what they hear in their own system. When I first starting listening to my Yggy2 it sounded bright and hollow. This was right after swapping out another Yggy1 from the exact same system. It sounds great now. Cool that it sounded better to you than the Hugo as it is so often compared to the Yggy...
Thanks for offering your own experience and for speaking only for yourself.
