Those things are rediculously expensive, sorry just had to get that out of my system

I have a couple questions for Jon L. about the CuTF caps.
First, how long did they take to fully break in? And did they go through a "lean bass" phase during the break in? With the regular TFTF V-Caps, I noticed that the bass was great to begin with, but entered a lean phase after maybe 75-100 hours and the bass did not come in fully until around the 450 hours mark.
Second, after the CuTF caps are fully broken in, do they have as much bass weight as the regular V-Caps or do they sound somewhat lean?
I am asking these questions because I have a set of new amps with CuTF couplers. The bass was great initially (consistent with your comment about "robust body"), but the sound became significantly leaner around 300 hours (later than regular V-Caps). The amps now have about 475 hours and the tonal balance hasn't changed that I can tell since the 300 mark. I am just wondering if this is the way it will be, or whether I can look forward to some changes.
This is my first post on this forum. It looks like a great place.
