Loving my F5v2.....But one thing I notice is it needs to play for at least 1/2 hour to really start sounding good. Is this me or is this a reality? My VTA Dynaco ST120 needs about 45 minutes before it starts to sound good, but we are talking tubes and I get that they need to heat up. But a SS amp needing to "Heat Up"?......My Sound Artist SA200ia and my Yamaha M45 sound great the second you turn them on.......Psychoacoustics???
No psychoacoustic tricks here, the F5 needs time to get to thermal equilibrium. Because of that, yes, it sounds better when it’s warmed up.
