” The differences are not knock-me-down, bowl me over, mind-blowingly different. But, they are perceivable. The components that make up this musically superior, abundantly articulated arena of substantial sound quality, usually offer only subtle differences. They are there, but you have to exert effort to discover them. If your mind wanders when you listen to music, then this is not the hobby for you. Audiophiles enjoy the thrill of the chase, and part of that chase, is finding devices that offer slight improvements to the superior gear that they already own. When comparing the tonal balance between the two units, the 380 procures the soundstage and distributes the frequencies, massaging them with more aplomb. When listening to Grant Green’s, “Green With Envy”, Grant’s jazz guitar is heard in masterful abundance from beginning to end. His style, akin to Wes Montgomery’s, has him slurring and blending difficult to hold diminished chords, from the top of the guitar’s neck to the bridge. As he holds his chords in tact, one can try to discern the 4 or 5 notes that the chord consists of, living in a coherent harmony, as he traverses through the octaves.”
