Just got back my Accuphase P300....have about 100 hours on it....still changing.....how long to get up to speed. I have read some that say 300 hours for these blackgate caps...any experience in a amplifier application.

To my ear they are better than many premium film caps. Not sure how they make lytics sound quite that good but I sure wish somebody would continue with the BG range of caps. Especially the N and V range. Regards Paul

I never bothered to watch the clock but mine took a few weeks running 24x7 before they started settling. Mine was used in the MC stage of a phono, so yours may settle a bit quicker. regards Paul
