[QUOTE="MisterDeadeye, post: 7569311, member: 611015"] I'm not sure why hispls is pushing so hard for misinformation; he started a topic several months ago saying he didn't believe in break-in. By the end of the topic(a few people had given him links showing tests done that prove the break-in theory correct. I was one of those people.), he had decided that maybe there really was something to break-in. But, I guess failed logic wins out against fact for some people. OP, break-in is real, and there is indeed a measurable difference in parameters of most dynamic drivers over a few hours time. You might not be able to hear a difference, but that doesn't make break-in a myth. If you expect your subwoofer(any driver) to change sonically from hot to cold, you'll be let down. That's not the kind of change that occurs. There is plenty of debate on [I]how[/I] to burn in(break in) speakers, and as far as I know, no one has found definitive proof showing that one way is "better" than another. I suggest just playing music through the sub with the same gain setting as you'd have normally(preferably set correctly). That's how I'll burn-in speakers until someone proves otherwise. [/QUOTE]
