ABM, sorry for the slow response……my three children, their spouses, and our eleven grandchildren have been visiting in our home for several days. The grand kids range in age from newborn to eleven years old, so I’ve been a little preoccupied.
Regarding tube burn-in, there was none! This was my impression immediately following installation of the Cryotone tubes. I feel as if I have a good handle on the sound of the CSP3, and when the two Cryotone tubes lit up for the first time, the CSP3 began making music in a way that I had not previously heard. Beautiful, warm, highly resolving is the way I hear music through the Cryotones.
The other thing is this; my Western Electric 300B’s surpassed the 500 hour magic burn-in mark this past weekend. The WE300B’s are extraordinarily special tubes, and they pair perfectly with Cryotones and the rest of my system. I also have Cryotone 6SN7’s in the input and driver positions in my Cary 300SEI, and they have been burning in for more than 300 hours now.
