Does a new cd transport require break-in time?

The only thing I have to add to the above is that, when you first insert a CD or manually change tracks, in my system it’s more of a loud pop or boom from the speakers instead of a click. When the volume is set to high I’m really afraid it’s going to damage the speakers.

Sorry for the redundancy.  It didn’t register the first time.

Twoleftears:

Since we share the same combo of DAC and transport, do you notice any lack of synergy between the components, or is your sound full, detailed and rich?
As previously noted in this thread, my Cambridge lacks fullness with the Gungy, but not with another DAC.

How annoying to have to find specific CD players and other devices that send zeros when paused or in between tracks.

Looks like a design mistake if this DAC was engineered to be compatible with a variety of devices.

I can understand and accept a device can click relays when switching inputs but a pause or a skip to a new track is not a change of input.

Perhaps they will issue a firmware fix for this serious limitation.

Hi Rv,

I have a feeling that when you get your "stuff" back from Schitt that it will work wonderfully with your Cambridge. I want to be straight with you I have heard a break-in period with the Cambridge. But for people who don't think that stuff breaks in that's ok.  In the long run you are going to like the Cambridge/ Gumby/Gungy?  synergy. Have a great Thanksgiving!
Best wishes
