I hope break in is true


This is the first time I ever bought a brand new out of the box Preamp. No, wait. Second but, the other doesn't count.
I had made previous posts about my decision to downsize.
I have, everything is kinda good. You know, Okay.
I bought a pre here. great seller, great store. Couldn't have been smoother.
I am just not used to this type of stuff. I wanted something with a phono included. I kept it well under a $1000.00
Now, I got to ask you guys. Will this thing get better???/
I have not had to worry about break in before. Does it really exist?
It is a very well built unit. Remote, I'm not used to that! That's nice. Has everything I need. Except it isn't alive. The music is there, presented very nicely. Clean, no extra stuff. Just doesn't have any dimension.
Please tell me this is going to get better:)

Every new component I have purchased has had a noticeable increase in SQ. It has ranged from subtle to Wow. A recent pre-amp purchase was a Wow. Its phono stage has gone from meh to glorius. After break in I believe the caps, resistors, ect finally reach their proper/rated operating spec, therefore I think this is designed in from the beginning.

As the previous post mentioned, my system like a side or two before its all warm and fuzzy.
