How long is the break-in time for a Sophia Electric Blue 6SN7 tube?


I just installed a pair of these tubes in my Modwright 5400 Signature Truth CD player.  They sound pretty good right away but the manufacturer says they will get considerably better in time.

You'll notice change and settling between 100-150hrs.  No need to leave them on 24/7, and 20-30min warmup seems to be fine.  I run the former TJ Full Music 6SN7 previously noted as being one of the OEM for Sophia 6SN7s but may have changed over the past few years . They are nicer tubes than some of the other re-issues and vintage N7s I've tried, still running them now. Hope they last longer than a year or more.
