  Amp burn in time..just being on or music played?
Okay I checked the archives first before asking....nada from what I can find. So, is it the time the amp is actually on or is the time that music is being played through the amp to determine burn in time ???

But c'mon Albert.........941 hours!!!????
The 1 hour made a difference??!

Notice my text read (approximate), numbers are taken at the end of the session and written on a pad to keep track of burn in time. Most of this was accumulated with the system silent, driving the crossover directly with my CD player.

There were lots of sessions where changes were apparent, the reason for calling out the ones I did was because those were substantial improvements.

No, the one hour did not make a difference, that was just the number that came up at the end of that session when everything was totaled.
