Any updated break-in info on Merlin Duelund Upgrd

Stereo5, Thanks for the good insight. Just wish I had a dedicated room and I could just put on repeat for a month and then come back and listen. Wish there was a device to burn these Duelunds in before they are installed like a cable cooker.

You're breaking in capacitors, not drivers. I can't see how the "out-of-phase" technique will make any difference.

I did this upgrade some years back and I don't remember it taking that long. My memory is that by 100 hours, they were pretty stable and sounding extremely good.

"Ask the Wizard [Bobby P.]. He'll know."

Bobby has some other stuff going on right now and I am not going to bother him with the question. We are having some plaster and paint work done in the room where the system is and that will last about two weeks so I will have to move and cover all my equipment. Based on what some people are telling me it may not be necessary to run the Duelund caps hundreds of hours before they break in and reach their potential. But, I would still like to know the best technique for doing that if you don't have a dedicated audio room where you can play are reasonable sound levels on repeat for days or weeks without a problem?

Any updates?
