Very astute observation - may have something to do with the fact that we know what those machines can do once they have more than 4 hours on them?
Same test done with a machine with more than 200 hours, I would not have any objection to the conclusion whichever it came out to be.
Just flagging that making an assessment on any machine with 4 hours of play is not reasonnable, on an Esoteric player it's flat out un-representative of the machine's capability.
Now the SA60/DV60 have a sound that is not typical of other Esoteric components I know and actually is far from being my favorite in their line. So I can easily understand somebody coming to the conclusion that they don't like it - but not after 4 hours of play. It would be like deciding that you don't like a Chateau Margaux 3 months after harvest... (if you're a wine enthousiast) or that the new Porsche 911 is crap 2 miles after leaving the factory...
