I'm sorry I never believed in break in your audio equipment. I have been buying audio equipment since 1970.I read all the stereo and audio magazines at the time and I never believed leaving your equipment on and never shutting it off .Broke in the equipment or using it so many hours and then BINGO is sound unbelievable and us ready to go really.....if you believe in Santa Claus,then perhaps but ,I think it wears it out....Nope.Not for me.
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?

@ghdprentice I believe him too. |
Appropriate questioning will lead to more answers than general blanket statements that make little sense. If the ear changes and not the gear, then why does Tube and Class A amplifiers have significant change in sound, but not class D? If the perceived change is an illusion, why is it consistently changing with only some gear? Does this illusion favor a certain sound? And always near the 2-hour mark. Regardless of listening time. I repeat, regardless of how many minutes someone had sat down to listen. |
