warm up/break-in period Your new Classé power amplier will deliver outstanding performance
immediately. However, you should expect to hear it improve somewhat as
it reaches its normal operating temperatures and its various components
“break-in.” It has been our experience that the greatest changes occur within the
rst 300 hours, as the amplier reaches thermal equilibrium and the capacitors
fully form. After this initial break-in period, the performance of your new
amplier should remain quite consistent for years to come.
e only exception to this rule is if the unit is placed in standby or unplugged for
an extended period of time, allowing it to cool down. Depending on the degree
of cooling involved, you should expect a brief warm-up period (on the order of
10-15minutes)beforethepoweramplier’ssoundqualityisatitsbest.Unless
your amplier was allowed to become quite chilled, subsequent thermal re-
stabilization should not take long. Fortunately, you should never have to repeat
the initial 300 hour break-in period.
please read this manual… Please take a few minutes to review this manual, and to familiarize yourself with
your new amplier. We understand that you are anxious to plug everything in
and get started. However, reading this manual and following the advice it gives
will ensure that you get all the benets you deserve from having purchased such
a ne piece of equipment.
