Split Topic: Impedance mismatch... (BD-Design)

Over the last weekend I took my Dac's, both TwinDac + and Crazy T to an audiofile friend of mine. His system is largely DIY and includes wooden cone speakers and monstrous amps based on GM70 lamps that heats the entire room. The system sounded wonderful, very involving and with good image and scene. We put the DAC's on test and were very disappointed with the sound. I couldn't believe my ears especially due to the fact that his source was CEC TL2 going into Sonic Frontiers DAC. Good components, yes but nothing more. Since I left my brain keeps coming back to it and searches for reasons. Impedance....
I like the way my system sounds and at least this is a relief!

Also, to my big regret I finally found out that I ripped all my CD's not optimally and have to redo it... and got to search the net for clues on how to do it right. but this is off-topic.
