Many thanks. Yes, I've found that about 45 minutes of warmup is about where they get "on the cam", as we say in motor racing.
I've been listening to my little Amp Camp amps as bridged mono blocks since the beginning of the long holiday weekend, and I have to say that now that they are getting more hours on them, they are starting to sound very good indeed. Nelson Pass, I tell ya what...
And...for 654 bucks, they're rather amazing.
