Listen to your music like normal at normal volume levels. If you want to be serious about it, play a sine wave at just below it's mechanical limits for about 10 hours. This will break it in.

Avoid music at first.

Play low note sine waves through it like stated above for a while.

Do note that you will NOT harm your sub by playing it at 100% fresh out of the box as long as you stay within it's thermal and mechanical limits. The suspension will be stiffer which will actually raise mechanical power handling. The break-in process is really only for gaining more low end extension but the sub WILL break in on it's own over time.

So basically just listen to it normally but dont push it to its limits (take it easy). I dont think I would notice a diffrence by playing sine waves.

You need to treat it as if you have owned it for 6 months; let it play at its full potential. Pushing the limits is not a good idea now or two years from now. I just want to make sure that is clear. Subs are more forgiving of abuse (mechanically) when they're brand new compared to when they're a year or more old.
