I have broken in many solid state and tube devices. Including Schiit. I would try and avoid drawing any conclusions before 200 hours. My high end Audio Research takes 600 hours to improve to most of it’s potential, but continues subtitly to 1,000 hours. I would consider yours mostly broken in at 200.

I just got an Aegir 2 today, and within first 20 minutes, pushed it into protection mode. It simply couldn't handle some serious George Duke funk! Oh... and I'm running it into my Cornwall IV's. I really like the sound so far, but the high's have a papery swishy sound to to them, that I hope will clear up When or IF it breaks in. I'm hearing other really good qualities though, but if it keeps shutting down on me, that will be a deal breaker. I really thought 30wpc would be plenty for my Cornwalls.

@mirolab I ended up returning the Aegir 2 because it was going into protection at lower volume than my original Aegir, which surprised me. I ended up returning it for that reason and getting another OG Aegir to run monoblocks. Very happy with them. To be honest, though, I liked the sound of the Aegir 2 more than the OG Aegir. It’s a great amp. |
