Let's see...600 hour break-in for, at most, 10 hours a day will take an additional 60 days for ARC to ship your piece to your dealer.
I'm thinking that's not gonna' happen. (and that doesn't include weekends) |

I think the Teflon caps were tough to break in properly. I've had no issues with the REF10. It was great from minute one and just gets better.

Perhaps the extra set of tubes is a go but would be turned into a payable option by the bean counters who couldn't see an excellent PR move if it date raped them. I do think you're onto something though. Man, are you going to get the big stick handle & all when you put this pre up for sale Mike...... Just ribbing ya, but you do give it the juice when an opening appears. I'd love to hear one in my system, but i know that will never happen where I'm at on the map. |

I've never sniffed an ARC, but I have to agree that there's nothing like that NIB smell when the juice starts gushing for the 1st time! As for tubes, I think it's a personal thing & it would be nice for a vendor to offer some choices. |

Maybe I'm too simplistic. I see the break in as part of the journey...
