How do you break in a preamp


I just bought a new Pass Labs preamp and I was wondering what was the best way to break it in?

Well if we are talking about the new Pass Labs XP-10 (which I own) its designed to be left on all the time, there is no on /off button.
The manual says it reaches its full potential after 24 hours of being plugged in.
But if your like me , I would say give it a week of being on 24/7 before crtically judging it.

I broke mine in by having my cable TV output on a music channel running though it all the time.

Its really painless because it sounds pretty good right after hook up and does not go through massive changes with more hours on it.
