Plinius warm-up


I've read on these boards the issue that the Plinius 8200 needs plenty of warm up time to sound right. This has been my experience also. I was wondering if other people are hearing the same specific qualities that I am. When the amp is not warmed up, the mids and highs play back level is lower, the lack of frequency balance giving the amp a bland sound. But the bass seems to be just fine compared to a warmed up amp. Same for you?

Same here. In my review of the Plinius 8200 mkII, I noted the extended warmup time required, even after being "broken in."

As Jadem6 states, even unplugging it for a little while requires a few days of warmup to get back to tiptop sound. I unplugged mine for 5 days (I went out of town and there was threat of a major winter storm). Took about that long for it to come back!
Which review is that, Hungplu? Mine does not have such a hum. If I turn the volume level up, with nothing playing, there is a slight hissing noise.
