Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

RE: is speaker break-in real?

As a machinist I made jet engine parts to quite high tolerances. We've been making jet engines longer than I've been alive, so your thinking engine break in has something to do with machining abilities is hilarious.

It was thought at the time it was better to let the rings seat themselves into the cast iron cylinder walls, thus making a better seal. Nowadays with aluminum blocks and heads with nikasil cylinder liners etc this technique has been virtually abandoned in gasoline engines.
