Black gate "N" & "NX" series how long to breakin

Just got back my Accuphase P300....have about 100 hours on it....still changing.....how long to get up to speed. I have read some that say 300 hours for these blackgate caps...any experience in a amplifier application.

I never bothered to watch the clock but mine took a few weeks running 24x7 before they started settling. Mine was used in the MC stage of a phono, so yours may settle a bit quicker. regards Paul

I think the improvements will be less going foward. But the difference between this amp and my black gate mundorf version isn't in the same galaxy.
