How can you be so sure that these problems you experienced were due to "cap break-in"?I'm not trying to cast doubt on your claim that you heard *something* going on. It's just that there are other components that might have created the sonic changes you heard - including moving parts (panel drivers) that might conceivably stretch out and/or settle in during the first few hours of the "break-in" period.
Admittedly, it might also be possible that our brains go through some sort of "break-in" process whenever we are confronted with sounds that are new or different.
Are we absolutely sure that capacitors are the culprits?

Yes, I'm absolutely sure.
Cap 'formation' is a known phenom which accounts for all I heard.
Do NOT mistake what I heard for a 'long term' break-in situation, however. The sound of my panels has been stable since just a few hours after initial turn-on.
Physical properties of mylar, for example, do not allow for much stretch, which after initial tensioning of the panel, would ruin it were it to occur.

Just reporting actual observation.
I had never noticed such behavior before….or since…..
