Break in period
Hi Patrick, i purchased the new 200w amp, preamp and CD player last week! It looks great!!
Wondering....could advise how long of break in period I should expect for the power amp? The sound isn't the best straight out of the box but is gradually getting better...any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hi T-Rice,
Good question, and I don't have a definitive answer for you. When I listen to a new amplifier, it is normally for no longer than 30 minutes initially, with all other equipment fully run in. Then I'll leave the system on repeat for about a week. During that period I'll check in every couple of days to hear how things are progressing (or not.) You'll hear the biggest changes in the first 48 hours. The top end will mellow out and integrate better with a more fleshed out midrange. Bass keeps it's power, but adds greater definition and in general sounds more supple. What you'll hear will in part depend on what you are paying attention to, so your results may vary.
I'd like to hear feedback on your experiences if you wouldn't mind.
Regards,

Hi guys
I currently have an RSP1572 which is an excellent processor for both movies and stereo. Will there be much to gain in stereo if I were to buy the RC1570 and use it for stereo?
The rest of my system consist of RMB1585 which I use to drive the B&W 804 diamond... -
I currently own an RSP1572 and I'm wondering if the RC1570 would be much better than the RSP1572. Anyone with some experience on this?

I am using Aux1 for HT bypass for Fronts with volume fixed so that when I watch movies volume control is done by processor. Does the RC1570 bypass mode pass through the sound from processor untouched through to power amp? I am asking this because when I read on HT bypass there is two types. One is...
