I'm wondering now how your 3B sounded right out of the box. Did you notice any nasties?My B60 sounded a little rough at first, but after 2 months or so it was decent and superb after 6 months.
Which front end and speakers are you using? Maybe you would consider reviewing your amp for this group. I know it seems hardly worthwhile after Stereophile and umpteen others stated their views, still, I would be interested in seeing it. When the 4B was still rough I was considering biamping using a 3BST for the treble.
I'm not sure the issue of break-in time has been covered on this forum. One dealer told me that none of the good solid state amps are at their best until after about 6 months of use. That includes Bryston, Krell, Mark Levinson. He wasn't familiar with Pass, Plinius, SIM or BEL.
