[QUOTE="Buck, post: 8754265, member: 591582"] It depends literally system by system man, and how it’s being used. DD’s aren’t designed to be tuned at 38 hz or whatever. That’s just what they recommend. I literally know a DD employee who was working on setting a 20 hz record dude. Idk if you get this, there are no rules in sound. Not when it comes to boxes, that’s the whole point. And you’re caling out somebody elselike you were there. Based on your logic, where is your data he’s wrong? My ears are real data. You can look at data all you want, what happens in the real world matters. Never said anything like a break in time was a good or bad thing. Just said it was a thing. You’re just narrow minded honestly. You can’t understand things about audio because of you emotions, emotional BS stuff like essentially calling people’s tastes in music bad because they don’t listen to farts all day long. “It doesn’t matter that you listen to 25 hz bc I don’t.” Can your prove to me that t/s parameters need to change at all for a woofer to sound different? I still don’t really disagree with you, but my ears don’t lie. If I wasn’t chronically ill and stuck in a bedroom, I’d love to do soeme tests. I’d really love to pull t/s. I don’t care what the t/s say on this one. I’ve heard the difference with my ears with some subs and break in time. Usually it’s very short. I’m not joking about the 9500’s either, there have multiple times and I’ve talked to individuals who say the same. In the past when I was around a lot of DD stuff, specifically the 9500’s would have this moment where they would play louder. And DD told us it would👀, and it did, and like 3 people on the car heard it man. I mean there was a pretty clear difference in how the woofer played and this happened with Multiple systems, albeit it was usually single woofer systems. We all must be retarded and snorting DD unicorn dust right? And DD must be retarded and snorting neodymium magnet shavings right? I wonder about glue types used for spiders and soft parts, and I wonder if there’s any extended hard cure time on that? Like I wonder if glue strength in relations to play time has anything to do with a break in. I’ve seen spiders lift off of stuff woofers before, but I think that’s usually crap manufacturing (American bass cough cough). There are electrical proprieties that can change with high heat. Electricity flow is very sensitive to small changes, especially since electricity moves so quickly. Heat can rearrange molecule structures and heat can also take tension out of materials, like heat softens metal and can allow for molecules to move in slightdifferent positions. So fresh wound copper or something, which is typically soft and malleable, could slightly move around inside of things like amps. No amp I know of needs a break in time, maybe besides a vacuum tube.
