Break-in for Resolution Audio Opus 21.

Hiya all Opus 21 owners,

How long does the opus 21 need for break-in? What kind of sonic differences can be expected?

Demo set sounded a lot smoother...esp. on female vocals...no grit and grain at all. Sibilants were also a lot more realistic...neither over or under emphasized.

Appreciate your input.

Thanks

Give it about 100 hours. It will smooth out over time! Also, I would be curious what amp and pre and speakers and cables you are running. Your setup may not be at the same level as the demo and the rest of your system may be holding it back. Either way, sounds like you have truly heard what the Opus 21 can do and if anything you may want to consider changing other gear to get the most from the player (after it breaks in etc).

Hi,

I mean the opus 21 cdp. However, I have had the same experience with speakers, amps and preamps. Need some time to smoothen out.
