I believe you,
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. |
