Furutech GTX NCF receptical break in, how long


Bought NCF with 6 day burn from seller. I have it burning in last 5 days on 2 cheap power bars with old desk top towers, fans, TiVo box, home theater amps. My amp and Preamp, phono stage and CD player are all tube so I don't use them. Ran system on outlet tonight and no bass, bright, sounds bad. First day with outlet it sounded very nice. Any owners of rhodium outlets can tell me what I'm in for time wise, or what to expect sound wise in next couple weeks, thanks

 @ paulcreed,  I have burned in many furutech receptacle's, the answer about the time frame is 500 hrs for most of the performance values, however, the incredible treble detail comes last, usually 700 hrs, done the ole fashioned way, playing music. 
@ Paulcreed, Lol!, I forgot to mention the furutech gtx-Rhodium duplex, and the  NCF version  is a bad roller coaster ride so to speak of,  I  hated breaking in these receptacle's more than anything in 40 yrs!, the good news is be patient,  there is no better receptacle's 🥃🍷🍸🍹🍺.
@ paulcreed, I also have and use the furutech receptacle cover plate🎼🎶🎵.
@ paulcreed, Did you read my 5-18-18 post?, I also said to you in another post that the furutech gtx-Rhodium duplex NCF receptacle’s is a roller coaster ride, meaning during break in, the sound go’s up and down,  worst break in ordeal than anything in 40yrs🤓
@ paulcreed, I believe auxinput nailed it on the head with this,  quote- In the end, I think it depends on how much resolution the system has.  If you are working with a very warm sounding system, these burn-in exercises may not affect you quite as much.  However, with a very revealing system, you could be in for a long term burn-in experience.  Though, Rhodium is the way to go if you want the best in resolution.             Personally I run my tube/solid state hybrid digital player with a $5,500.00 power cord that has oyaida plugs on it straight to the amplifier,  so yes, absolutely,  it has to do with resolution of any given system. 
 As it turns out from experience,  the break- in is for each plug in on every duplex,  sorry paulcreed,  I should have told you this. 
@ paulcreed, Been awhile, need to mention that you need to run system 12 hrs and then turn off at night, do process all over again each day, this needs to be done after 450 hrs, be patient my friend, I would like for you to keep me informed here with progress, remember, the extended high’s come in at 700 hrs like a brick up side the head, believe me, you will know when the treble detail kicks in.
