M-700u

I just bought this amp. to drive Wilson Sabrinas. Is there any recommended break in period for Luxman amps after which optimum sound is achieved? There was no mention of it in the manual. It is sounding great with about 7-8 hours of use, but I feel that my Symphonic Line Kraft 250 amplifier has a better grip on mid bass (of-course it is a more powerful amp.).
Cheers,

The m900u is a much better amp than the 700u but the Kraft is a much more powerful amp and better in the bass, and I have not compared them next to each other but won't be surprised if the Kraft is better. In fact I was suggesting to user211 here who owns Apogees and now likes the Luxman m800a to try the Kraft.

Yes that is what I was suspecting. Anyways I have a 2nd setup with easier to drive ATC SCM20v2 and I will plan to move the luxman there and bring the Kraft back.
Cheers,

Yes, the Luxman has many great qualities, absolute bass control not being one of them, unfortunately.
