I would take it out of the system for a few weeks and then reinsert it to let you hear everything with fresh ears. Whether or not a power conditioner will improve your system is very dependant on the quality of your incoming power and your components' need for additional conditioning. Also, I don't think conditioning will improve bass impact or cure shrill highs. They generally quiet down the backgrounds, allowing more inner detail to emerge - lowering the noise floor, if you will. At least that's been my experience. Good luck.
How long it takes to break in Running Spring Haley
Hi all,
I purchased the latest version of Running Springs Haley about 3 months ago, and up till now it doesn't sound like broken in yet. My system consists of a Cambridge 840C CDP and Luxman SQ-N100 tube amp. In average, I use my system between 5 to 10 hours per week, mostly listening to audiophile jazz vocals and classical.
After 3 months of usage, the sound has gotten slightly better, but still lacking impact in bass, rather "tight" (or constricted, not free flowing) in the mids, and kind of shrill (slightly disjointed with the rest of the spectrum) in the highs. This is in comparison with the power bar (no filtering) I was using previously. Yes I can hear more details and layering, but how long will it take for the sound to open up and smooth out the rough edges?
Many thanks.
