Hi Everybody,

How long in hours does it take to properly Burn-in the Grado Ra1.?

Best wishes,

Paul.

About 30 seconds if you pour kerosene on it first. It's made of wood.

Hi,

The Grado amp will break in after about 40 hours of use.

I agree with Todd. Mine settled down after about 50 or so hours.

Thanks Guy's,

50 hours or so doesn't seem too long to wait.

Beagle, I think I'll leave the kerosene alone for now.

Best wishes,

Paul.

It should take about a month to burn in 40 hours. The anticipation will be like growing a garden
