Its basic signature is set pretty much from the beginning but there is an extended period (they've discussed 500-1,000 hours) before it fully comes into its own.

Hi Joe,
Yes, I've heard it need something like 600 hours or so to burn in. It's clear that it's going through some changes as it burns in. It started out kinda "sharp and zingy" right out of the box, then got warm and wooly for a while, and now it's settling down a bit. It still reminds me more of my Schiit Gungnir MB than it does my Lampizator Baltic-3.
