Hi, I've been swapping back and forth today between my new D70 (BT version) and my D10 (both via USB input and source/speakers remaining constant) and was quite surprised at just how different they sound. I've seen threads on here where DACs are compared and often the poster is asked, (among other things), if they were level matched. With this in mind I've tried various volume levels for each (all around the area where they subjectively sound matched) and no matter whether I feel one might be louder or quieter than the other, or both the same, the presentation difference I am hearing between the two persists and I find it really quite distinct.
Would this difference in what I am hearing likely be attributable to the different DAC chips, or other factors...op amps, circuit design etc...or just a combo of all this?
