Use pink noise disc to warm up stereo
My SS Pass Labs and as well as my expensive digital gear always sounds better after they’re on for at least an hour. (They must not be well designed.) Once again we have to ignore posters that pose theoretical comments. (When will they get it?) Ju... 
Dirac vs dspeaker room correction

If it bothers you that much why are you wasting your and our time with it? 
JRiver vs Foobar - which do you prefer and why?
@bruce_philly None the less, they do. So much for theory. 
What makes you build a system around an amplifier?
I bought a Pass amp and knew I could never give it up. 
Any Reason to buy a pre-owned Auralic Vega 1 or Wait for the Revised Vega ?
Because they sound good? 
Recording Streaming Audio?
Not sure of the connections on your device, but maybe you could run your input into a laptop/desktop running inexpensive recording software (TotalRecorder, and others) and capture it there as a MP3, flac or other file type as selected in the sof...
