***UPDATE ***
I bought and received a Cable Cooker this week to burn in all my cables. I started with the XLRs that run into the V280. Burning them in made a HUGE difference. The upper midrange glare is totally gone and the bass is even tighter than it was before. Tonally it sounds very close to what mastertapes should sound like.
I am still not 100% sold on soundstage though. I wish it was a little wider, the RWA was. What is here though is very continuous, i.e. sounds like real music rather than left channel and right channel sound. Though the RWA imaged wide sometimes IMHO it sounded like the two channels were of different heights & widths, maybe like there was a hole in the middle of the image. The V280 doesn't have any of that. I am still working on cabling and getting adapters to cook my Audeze cable so I will post again when I have more time into listening if anyone is interested.
