Reviewers often comment that it takes about 100 hours before a new amp
settles down and start to sound like it 'should'.

In this case, what constitutes 'burning-in'? Is it sufficient to just
leaving the power on for a week? Or does it have to be driving a load
(the neighbours are going to just love that)?

Maybe a couple of chunky resistors across the outputs would be ok?



Bugger that - just *use* the damn thing and let it 'grow on you'........



That raises an interesting point. Maybe, what is being burnt-in is not
the hardware, but one's appreciation of the sound.

Which is a bit alarming, really. Do HiFi shops exist that allow you to
take the kit back if you change your mind 3 weeks after you bought it?
