[QUOTE="Prowler573, post: 3152225, member: 561023"] In a word? Now. I bought the sub I currently run at full retail pricing from a local retailer because I wanted a valid warranty. Going by the very common urban myth that some kind of break-in period was necessary I asked the shop's manager how long I should 'take it easy' on the sub before I really tried to get outrageous with it (as outrageous as a single mid-level 12" can get, anyway...) He grinned at me, walked inside to get a test CD, came back outside, put the disc in my HU, and cranked the volume to 28 of 35 (where I have my gains set) I figure since this is the guy who would be responsible for warranty replacement if he burned it up then he must have a fair idea of such a thing not being detrimental to the sub in any way. It wasn't. That was like 3 years+ ago now and I'm still rocking the very same sub... [/QUOTE]
