warm up/break-in period Your new Classé power preamplifier 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 first 300 hours, as the preamplifier reaches thermal equilibrium and the
capacitors fully form. After this initial break-in period, the performance of your
new product should remain quite consistent for years to come.
The only exception to this rule is if the unit is 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 before the preamplifier’s sound quality
is at its best. Unless your preamplifier 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 preamplifier. 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 benefits you deserve from having purchased such
a fine piece of equipment .
