Hey,
I was completely stoked when I got my RA-1 from Todd, only 3 days after I got my RS-1's. I was previously using my Perreaux SXH1 with the RS-1's. I got the RA-1 because of the wonderful synergy that's been reported by so many people over here. I guess I'm wondering... how long will it take, using the RA-1 and the RS-1's, to burn in and settle into the sound that they're supposed to elicit? Right now things are pretty congested and bloated. I guess they'll always be that way compared to the HD650's, but I want to believe that it'll be way better than this.
I'm using my Arcam DIVA CD73 with Copperhead interconnects to the RA-1, by the way. And I've been burning everything in with a mixture of static and bass-heavy music.
P.S.
Do you have to be playing music through the amp in order to burn it in, or does just turning it on count?
