burn in - how important?
Definitely burn in, break-in, whatever you want to call it, is real. I can't explain it, but any seasoned audiophile hears it. ozzy  
Suggestion between benchmark Ahb2, Bob carver crimson 275 and rogue atlas magnum 2 amos
I have owned for a few years now the Carver M350 mono blocks. I have looked at the insides, the wiring, build quality and to me it all looks excellent. Before the Carvers I owned the Atmasphere M60-3.3 and before that a Pass Labs X350.5 solid sta... 
The New Synergistic Research Purple Fuses

Puritan Audio Labs GroundMaster CITY & RouteMaster grounding system

RIP oregonpapa

The NPS1260 doesn’t actually come off when the fitting is disconnected, etc. Many times, all that is necessary is to just use a small brush to redistribute it on the fitting. To answer the question, no, I have not noticed a change when reapplied....
