What if the sonic changes we perceive during the "break-in" period are at least partly due to changes in our hearing during that time?I don't know if this is true, but it's certainly possible that our ears are involved in the "break-in" process. If that is true, then we might be better off by not trusting in one of those handy "burn-in discs" to do all of the work for us while we step away from the listening room for hours at a time. What if our ears need to hear what is going on during break-in for break-in to be completely effective?
The best thing to do during any "break-in" period? Maybe, just sit there and listen to the music as always(?).
