David, My Sony DVP-9000ES just kept getting better and better. It took about 500 hours to really shine. That is quite extensive, and you may only need 2-300 hours. Your ears will know, try to be patient. Good luck. Martin
CD Player Break-In
Hi all,
Just purchased a Cary Audio 306 cd player. The manual recommends to let the cd player break-in for 100 hours, I have seen on other forums that says this player takes 300-500 hours before it starts sounding really good. So far it sounds great, a little harsh on the top end.
Anyways, my question is, do I have to turn on my preamp and amplifier when breaking in my cd player? Can I just leave the cd player on repeat and have my preamp(tube) off and amplifier(solid state) off? Will this also break in my interconnects(new) connected to the cd player?
Thanks.
