Question about Pass Labs X 350.5 meter


Please, I bought this new amplifier sealed) and is connected (stand-by mode by 5 days.
I noticed that when I push the front panel button to activate the amplifier (to listen music!) the
lights will come on and the meter that refletting the bias take about 2 minutes to go between one-third and half way up reflecting the bias.
I ask this because with the previous that I had (Pass X 250.5) when I push the front pannel button the meter was positioned immediately.

a)It 's normal?
b) In "stand by" mode the amplifier run not warm, it's ok? ( Pass 250.5 run quite waem in "stand by mode !)

I am considering buying a used 350.5. I am driving a ADcom 5500 currently (1.4v) directly from cd player through passive preamp. The 350.5 has inpout sensitivity of 2.75 volts. Will a cd player drive it directly as well? Thanks
