It's possible.I remember listening to the Roksan Caspian CD player several years back. I had been using a Sony DVP-9000ES player and when I swapped it out for the Kaspian I immediately noticed a different sonic presentation. The large dynamic swings in the music stood out in greater relief with the Kaspian in play. I suppose that the heftier power supply of the Caspian really made a difference in this case, but I'm really not sure. I can say that music immediately sounded more "rhythmic" with the Caspian, that's all.
So, the Sony excelled in soundstaging and transparency while the Roksan excelled in tonal richness and dynamics. I'm not sure which presentation is the more "accurate" of the two but that Roksan could swing a tune like no other CD player I've owned before or since.
