Jason.......At 50 hours the PrimaLuna Dialogue HP break-in is not complete. The PrimaLuna Prologue Premium integrated amplifier I reviewed had 50 hours on it when I received it. During the next 150 hours of break-in I put it through I heard it smooth out a midrange peak that initially irritated my ears but disappeared at about the 150 hour mark. Those big Nichicon capacitors take quite a bit of time to settle into a permanent state. Be patient and you will be rewarded. With only 50 hours of use it is too early to make assumptions about the Dialogue HP's ultimate voice. At 200 hours you will have a completely different opinion and improved performance.
