“BURNING-IN” YOUR MODEL 2100
Like many other great high end preamplifiers, your Model 2100 should operate for at least 72 hours with music playing after it is first turned on before it will sound its best. Any volume level is ok. This gives various internal components and wiring a chance to “form” their optimum electron pathways so they can pass complex musical information with greater definition, smoothness and transparency.

You’ll discover additional musical details you may not have known were present.
