My PMG DAC arrived yesterday and by 1pm I had it up and running. It actually took me longer to adjust my rack than it did to get the DAC running. I couldn’t wait to hear it & started listening right away which I shouldn’t have. I would suggest to give it at least an hours run time before you really listen to it although others might disagree with this.
I was planning a 4 hour listening session before dinner so I poured 2 “fingers actually 3” of Angels Envy Bourbon & started my listening session. I did not initiate the Qobuz function which I will do another time.
Even though I need more seat time it is obvious that the PMG is better than the MK II. At this time I don’t want to get into how much better it is. As I spend more time with it , I will get into more specifics. Initial impressions are that the PMG provides more detail and it is more holographic than the MK II. Backgrounds are blacker & the soundstage is wider & a little deeper.
After dinner, I spent a few more hours listening before turning in. The evening session was even more rewarding & cemented my decision to keep the PMG & return the MK II. I kept it playing through the night & hope to get some more listening time today. I promised to take my wife out for some leaf peeping and lunch at a lobster pound today but I hope to do a more detailed post tomorrow.
Very similar to my findings.
I dunno if I can trust any evaluation with any new gear with 3” Angels Envy (really, not more?). My Sonos sounded great with 1” whiskey already. 
@dchang05. Maybe with 3 fingers it would sound great. Actually 3 fingers over 4 hour’s isn’t much & it did not color my observations.
It would be an insult to the electrons inhabiting your house if you did not salute them with a good drink of your choice. Now all will be good. 
I think three or four fingers would render my iPhone into an audiophile device 
But on a more serious note, being in a proper frame of mind is a must for good listening. Just received my PMG this morning - @Iwin1949: you have given me something to look forward to - will share my initial thoughts when I can.
I like my drinks with nobodys fingers in it…
I thout about burning in new components for expedited break in time, but then i decided it should be fun to listen to the break in time aswell…
Wha ive noticed, and i hope if anyone has the same experience to share but, i find with speakers especially they dont change much during session. Its when i power down and all the components cool down, that the next day i notice severe change and openness.
That hot n cold melt in time. Anyway thats my experience 
I also received my PMG DAC yesterday, and had it connected and running by mid-day. Replacing the MKII & Airlens, connected to PMG PRE. I wanted to start by keeping the Airlens so that there was only one new variable. Right away I thought - no better than the MKII, in fact maybe worse. Four hours of burn-in later, and it was much better. More “natural/organic” sounding. Bass was tighter/faster and deeper. Drums especially sounding good and headed in the right direction. A couple of hours later, I switched from the Airlens to the built-in streamer. Not good. Took a step backward. Let that play for an hour, and magic was back. I am really getting more of a sense of the “room” from the recordings. More than once I had to hit mute to see if that was a sound in the room, or on the recording. Left on for additional burn-in today and tonight we continue listening.
One thing I can’t figure out yet is how to switch to the Streamer input with the remote. If I am in any other input, there is no button for streamer on the remote. Also, it does not always display the correct sample rate - I assume that will be fixed in a software update.
Hit the optical button twice in a row. Honestly inhave paid much attention to the display for rate. Too small.
I don’t drink alcohol at all, fingers or not.
I agree that with components a handful of getting hot and then cooling down settles the components and after a half a dozen say five hours on, five hour off periods breakin is pretty much achieved.
Yea pretty, its a sudden change for me everytime i turn it on again… thanks fr sharing!
I will withhold all my comments from now on since I don’t own any of PMG products, and I don’t want to sound judgmental.
I had a hard round of golf in the rain, so I am going to enjoy my four fingers Mars Maltage Cosmo whiskey and some beautiful music.
I raise you a finger 
all card on the table!
