RE: Many Times...

"Transformers do not need to break in."

Gargoyle is quite right. There is no scientific basis for the claim that transformers need to "break in." Some audiophiles like to propagate myths about imagined subtle effects associated with "breaking in" components. These could in principle be tested by means of double-blind listening experiments, but those same people argue vehemently that such tests are worthless. In the immortal words of Mandy Rice Davies, "they would say that, wouldn't they."
