Furutech GTX NCF receptical break in, how long

I don't have direct experience with Furutech's NCF Rhodium receptacles into the wall since all of my NCF Rhodium receptacles are in a power supply.  Being the same receptacles, my findings may apply. They went through extended burn in at the builder's location (I don't remember how long; likely a week) and sounded very good after two weeks of active use in my system. I found marginal improvements / settling over the third and fourth weeks. 

Great to hear it's performing to your expectations!

+1 @auxinput  What you say may have been the case.

Paul, I say it’s long enough, but as you know other posters have indicated otherwise. At this point, I would test with another power cable(s) from the outlet to see if it may be a synergy issue. Have you checked the wire to the outlet to verify there are no loose connections?

Sharing my experience with a recent install of a pair of Furutech GTX-D NCF(R) Duplexes; GTX Wall Frames; and 106-D NCF Outlet Covers.

Having read this thread as well as others regarding break-in for the NCF(R) duplexes, I was expecting a long and wild ride.

This has not been the case. After about 2.5 hours sound quality settled and has incrementally improved since, with the exception of some weirdness with vocals on day 1 and day 2.

I have not experienced the variance others have reported.

I have been playing music through the system for 14 to 16 hours a day followed by a 10 to 8 hour break, though there is some draw through the outlets during the down time.

My system is highly transparent (read: resolving... mentioning this to address a point from earlier in the thread regarding low-resolving systems).

The outlets have about 220 total hours on them (as of now). Assuming 60% playtime, accounts for 132 of the total hours (an approximate figure).

The outlets were in their original packaging. In other words, no prior burn-in.

@ryder   Incremental improvement, only...since my previous post.

Certainly no 'jumps' in performance.

May I ask if you have experienced further changes to the sound after 400 hours or so?

Approximately 340 hours of additional active play time since my post on 9/30. Therefore, just under 500 hours as of today. Total draw time is approaching 800 hours.

+1 regarding: "this GTX-D NCF outlet is the best I’ve experienced"

My previous experience with the same NCF outlet was very different (read...not as impressed). However, that was the receptacle only implemented in a power supply. 

I currently have two of the bundled outlet sets. I will be adding two more bundle sets.
