New parts, when breaking in, tend to sound like dirty mono.
then they go darker but cleaner, slowly... and then the speed, imaging and subtleties like plosives and the pop and the like..slowly come back..
Leave the phono stage on, even when not playing anything. Just the quiescent signals will help speed up the break in.
This will take weeks.
