I think from reading the above I will burn in some more. I probably have 125 hrs on it.
Welcome earwaxxer- I read a number of your posts and Head-Fi about the Gungnir, and I concur with what you shared here. I've been away on biz for a few days, but my last listens began to reveal an even larger and more coherent soundstage. When I get home my unit will have been powered down for a week, I'll be curious to hear how it sounds when freshly powered up, and then down the road with more break in.
