When I get it - I will give initial impressions and then let it burn in a bit.....

I just powered up a new amp this weekend with all new caps, resistors, diodes to burn in trying to get myself to not make a premature judgment. I feel like I should take notes to reflect on each of the stages at 10, 50, 100+ hours because it can be a bit of a roller coaster, even up to 200hrs. Also, depends on tubes too...
Are you using fresh tubes or re-using your prior burned-in tubes before the upgrade?
