Is my ARC LS25 MkI holding back the sound?

[birdland]

I've been listening this afternoon and there is no point in putting the LS25 back in. I hear textures and instruments, etc that I have not before heard before on tracks with which I am very familiar.

I was listening to RACHMANINOV Piano Concerto No 1 (Denis Matsuev - piano; conducted by Valery Gergiev) on DSD64 files from NativeDSD.com and I have to say that I have never heard this piano sound as real as it does in my stereo even when I had expensive Telefunken 6922 CCAs in my LS25.
