72 hours on the vt25 amp and it sounds much more open now. highs are pretty extended and refined. grain disappeared. surprisingly, at 1.3wpc, this amp plays loud..in fact louder than the tb2a3 amp.
this amp is sensitive to cables used as well as quality of front-end and software. compared to my 45 amp, this has leaner bass. this is not an amp you would call sweet and tubey, rather i find it clean-sounding, articulate, detailed but not analytical.
i'll work out some mods/tweaks after 100 hours to make it sound more lush like my 45.
great value amp especially with tamura iron and premium parts.
