Hi all.
Awhile back I got some pass labs x260.8 monos. I think they sound great on fire up ...and get better as they warm up. But it seems if I leave them on for 2 days ... I'll tell you - there seems to be some magic going on. In particular - very holographic vocals... sound stage...and depth. I've experienced this several times. Typically I shut down between listening but noticed this when I either forgot to shut them down or was trying something out.
Has anyone else had this length of warm up time seem to continue to improve things?
Thx Tim

- Is it the sound of "warm up" ? Or is it the sound of "listener acclimatization" ? - peppy m. 06:09:05 10/1/23 (1)
