Re: ET3 burn in period?

Yes 24/7 is correct as I said it will Sound very matter of fact vague one dimensional, a wandering stereo image all over to one side then the other. The image will pretty much be flat between the speakers with no depth or width. (I also had a ET3 from new) the frequency exstreams will fill out aroun...

Re: ET3 burn in period?

Hi Jazz, Which ET3 do you have I’m supposing it’s the none SE version, also do you have the phono stage incorporated. As Roberto and admin have suggested it markedly opens up and becomes much more transparent after 300-400 hours constant use. After this time you will see onto the music removing the ...

Re: New phono.

Hi RJ, Thanks for getting in touch and taking the time too explain how your system has morphed since we last spoke.

Re: New phono.

Hi all, Thanks Roberto for getting in touch, yes I’ve put around 700 hours on the ET5 to date and it’s really only now that it’s beginning to sound consistent, in fact it was still showing noticeable signs of improvement after the 500 hour mark, particularly in layering, scale and size of the Sound ...

Re: WTD ET5 Pre amp.

Hi givin2u,
I already have an ET5, but im assuming this is 110v American Voltage as I live in London UK, this will unfortunately limit It’s sale ability Here. You should note it’s voltage when advertising, as this will Help potential purchasers with comparability to different parts of the world.

Exactly, if the opportunity ever arises for an Act2 and it’s a great price and it’s in mint condition and you can live with it for a couple of week in your own system before committing then who knows....!!

Re: New phono.

Hi Thanks Roberto and RJ,
I'll keep everybody updated but much more encouraging as I'm not half way through the Teflon breaking period and it definitely improved last night.
Will post again at the 300 hour point.

Re: My CJ-based system

Fits in nicely with the decor not too imposing. Very liberal use of stillpoints they must work for you to pay so much attention to your individual components.
Am I right in thinking you have a Premier 350SA now...?
