How long does Plinius SA 102 take to warm-up...

after shut-down? I remember HP saying that the SA-50MK3 took seven day's to sound good which he regarded as the best sound Plinius at the time.

After about 2-3 hours, I feel this is the peak - with minimal improvement a few hours beyond that. I had never left my Plinius 102 on for several days with class A bias on, so I may not exactly know just what the ceiling limit is on this guy.

I had The SA100 Mk 3 ten years ago and loaned it to him and he didn't like it(I wonder why). If it weren't for Audio Nervousa for a BAT Vk75, I would've kept it until the arrrival of a '102.
