I have just received the AMP :)

[Niels]

Så er "Rock'nGlass" ankommet med multimeter, skrutrækkere og alt.
Forleden ankom en lille pakke med tre rør fra det høje nord. Kvik har været så venlig at sende mig nogle rør, der blev til overs i forbindelse med hans "store rørpakke" Jeg sender dem videre sammen med forstærkeren, så fremover bliver der mulighed for at stifte bekendskab med "rulning", for dem der deltager i Touren. Flot initiativ fra Kvik; tak herfra.

Jeg smider lige en PB til næste deltager.

Would Zigis, Crazydaysy95 and Ostebaronen please give an estimated time of running for the amp?

I notice a drastic "improvement over time" regarding soundquality. At first I was like "hmmm no big deal" but after about 5 to 8 hours of music the score is about even with my Objective2.
This could be due to lack of "burn in", but I´m not sure.

[Ostebaronen]

I ran it around 5-10 hours, haven't really counted it.

[Niels]

Thx.
Skiftede du rør, justerede bias mens du havde den?

[Ostebaronen]

Brugte det som fulgte med, så nej, jeg har ikke pillet.

Nu ejer jeg en RnG.
Som dig oplever jeg også en forskel på når den er varmet op, men så vidt jeg har læst mig frem til er det meget almindeligt at den skal have lov til at varme op. Jeg oplever dog ikke den store forskel om vi snakker 1 time eller 2-3 timer. Har ikke prøvet at lade den køre længere tid.

Bias gør åbentbart en forskel, jeg rodede med det igår og opdagede at efter bias at et sæt nye rør blev mindre mudrede i lyden når jeg skruede op. Før kunne jeg ikke skrue ret meget op for lyden før den krakelerede, men det hjalp med bias. Så det er åbentbart et MUST

[Zigis]

Yes, cold amp sound normal, however I notice after 1 - 1.5 hour it start to sound much better.
Fresh built amp, with new parts (I think mostly Electrolytic caps) start to sound more or less listenable only after 4-5 hours.
later changes are less noticeable, however this is all very subjective, of course.

[Mataugust]

I should join this tour before buying.
