I have no doubt that a mechanical device (phono cartridge, speaker drivers) can break in, but I've often wondered whether amplifiers, cd players, etc. have a break in period, or if we just get used to them. For example, why is it always claimed that they get better with break in? I've never heard of a device sounding worse after a while; even cheap stuff. Why would the burn in period always result in an improvement?
