I'm curious for sure. I'd want to measure it too or would that be some
kind of heresy ?

I'd also be interested in any evidence that it was real, due solely to the
sound, and wasn't something trivial/obvious like an alteration in the
frequency response. IIRC Andy made similar claims a while ago, but although
someone else commented on a possible reason for a different in device
(electronic) characteristics, no-one was able to provide anything more than
assertions of an audible difference that wasn't for a trivial reason.

Slainte,
