PM sent, regarding valves


Acorn

Is the practice of burning in components strictly necessary and if so could any one explain why this is needed.

RCA Phono outputs to drive a valve amp

Would a Arcam rPac dac sound any better than a high-end sound card or
would it be better to go down the DIY route.

What would the forum members recommend which way to go to obtain the best sound for ones money.

I have just tried two non - poarised 100uF Rubycons and they sound quite good but as stated it is hard to tell, I see Maplin sell this type as well.

Acorn

Would there be any advantage in replacing a standard electrolytic
capacitor in a cathode bias output stage with non polarised electrolytic type.
