Amp burn in time..just being on or music played?


Okay I checked the archives first before asking....nada from what I can find. So, is it the time the amp is actually on or is the time that music is being played through the amp to determine burn in time ???

You accelerate the benefit by playing music, even at a very low level. My Rowland integrated amp stays on 24/7 at Rowland's recommendation, but I played music through it constantly for the first 150 hours or so.

Most amps get up to a pretty nice preformance level in just 150 and improve very slowly from there; however, so cool running Class D amps like more like several hundred to 1000 hours.
