Well, since the english is not my first language I am not sure if "hard and agressive" would be the more ideal words to describe what I'm feeling with the DP-57. It's true that the Accuphase CDP reviews never talk about agressive and hard sound. However, it seems I'm not the only one experimenting this kind of sound during the first breaking-in days of an Accuphase CDP. Take a look at this thread :http://db.audioasylum.com/cgi/m.mpl?forum=digital&n=106739&highlight=audio+aero+DP-75V&r=&session=
Giantfeet says his recently purchased Accuphase DP-75V leads to listener fatigue after a while. Of course, he was used, like me, to the tubey, highly warm and very relaxed sound of an Audio Aero CDP. But it seems at the end he sold the Audio Aero and decided to keep the Accuphase.
