He still won't answer my question about headphone break-in after non-continuous listening with no 'getting used to' involved.
Break In Question?
I have been under the assumption that in order for a component to break in there must be a signal pass through from one piece of equipment to another. That is, running a Dac/Preamp into an amp, the amp must be turned on for the Dac/Preamp to break in.
But is this really true? Does the amp really need to be turned on?

All this talk about “break in” has made me think of something that l have never even considered before. There has been some debate that equipment with moving parts benefit the greatest. Speakers leading the field because of their mechanical drivers. So what has suddenly dawned on me is……. l personally have never heard a difference other than with an immediate change of model. Is there anyone who thinks that a tonearm improves from being broken in, just like a car engine? |
@douglas_schroeder What is your position on amplifiers sound, especially class A that's freshly turned on vs 2 hr of warmup? |
