I will agree, yet in the Plus IC's case, the system was "cold," having been on for about five minutes only. In that episode I started wth one of my reference tracks, the Atlanta Symphony's version of Fanfare for the Common Man, so the familiarity level is quite high. That's why I'm not completely convinced system warm-up was a major factor on Sunday. Unfortunately, I can't duplicate last Sunday because I forgot which CD I started with, but I do remember it wasn't one I play a lot.
