Speedy, as you know I never heard my Venustas phono "new" so to speak because Jim had already broken them in. And he was very emphatic about pointing this out (as an added extra!) when I bought them. So I'm sure it's an issue. I suggest you call or e-mail him and ask. He'll get right back to you, although his responses themselves are often somewhat cryptic!
I had mine new. It's a big difference. After about 200 hours...it really opens up...sweetens up, details comes out...decays...bass much more solid and dementionsal...

25 hours you're just missing the best!
Thanks John, I really had no way to answer Speedy's question. BTW, if anyone wants a good source (read "discount") for a lot of this really expensive high end stuff, send me your email address and I'll forward a copy of the latest list.
