“BURNING-IN” OF THE AMPLIFIER _____________________________
Any tube amplifier requires an initial pre-heating (or "burn-in") period, in order so
that it achieves its full sonic potential. This is due to the presence of residual
polarization of dielectric elements and due to a necessary stabilization of working
parameters of the vacuum tubes. The stabilization of the electrical parameters of the
system occurs in a natural process whilst playing music through your audio system.
A preliminary degree of pre-heating of the amplifier is reached after about 10 hours
of quiet music playback.
The full sonic capabilities shall stabilize and unfold within a time-span ranging from
40 to 60 hours of music reproduction at a moderate volume levels.
In the initial period of operation of the amplifier it is advisable to avoid short-term
operation periods of the amplifier. Once activated, it should remain operational for a
period of about 4-6 hours.
WARNING! After the “burn-in” period, it is necessary to check,
readjust the BIAS values.
