Re: auricap burn in

2 hours is definitely not enough burn in at all. You've barely warmed up the leftover flux from the soldier at that point, let alone burned that off. Leaving it on repeat for 24 hours (although you may want to let the player cool off periodically) will get you most of the way there. But in my experience you'll need 40-50 hours for ANY cap to show its true colors (...shining through...and that's why I love you...).

I you still think it's not open enough after that, then I would suggest trying a .1uF bypass cap of decent quality (the Sonicap II's are only $2 or so each at that value).

Enjoy,
Bob
