[QUOTE="User121314, post: 1080010, member: 16824"] ^^^ but how would you know when it has "stabilised"? Do you measure? or do you just think / assume? Do the manufacturers not check their products extensively before selling? It's daft. Why would a manufacturer release a product that only sounds good after "X" number of hours? Or is it actually your hearing becoming accustomed after "X" number of hours? I've had items on demo from dealers in sealed boxes. Never once been told "Keep this playing 24/7 for however many hours days for it to sound it's best". It is confirmation bias. Ever notice how equipment only ever sounds better after "X" number of hours? :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: Never worse.... Anyhow, as always YMMV. I call hogwash & confirmation bias / becoming accustomed to the sound signature. [/QUOTE]
