How important is speaker break-in, as relates to both sound quality, tuning accuracy, and how loud I can turn up the speakers?
The shop I worked with was super behind on finishing my install and when gave me the car told me to come back for a free speaker tune, and not to tune it before 20 hours or so of speaker break in period, or to turn the volume level up over maybe 25%-30% until 20 hours of play. Because my experience with the shop was generally shady, I am left questioning this.
1.) Does the sound quality really change so much that you can't tune before then? I'm not happy with the sound quality currently and I also feel like it's more likely they were working after hours and just wanted to finish my car install, so skipped tuning to get out early and claimed it was needed to wait for break-in?
2.) Why do I need to keep the speaker volume relatively low during break-in? And how long should I wait before turning them up more?
