Glad you enjoyed the review. Thanks for your kind words.

Just to clarify, The Predator I used for this review was sent to me fully burned in so my findings are for a fully burned in model. I don't know how many hours per se, but I assume at least 500, if not more.

When I referred to not letting an amp run on play for an extended period of time I was referring to the the minibox e+. I doubt that amp has even 100 hours on it yet. It may get better with time also.
