In Reply to: "breaking-in" new speakers posted by surgeonx on September 20, 2001 at 05:38:46:
Typically speakers need bewteen 60 and 100 hours to break in.Connect your speakers up normally, place a CD in your player, hit play, set the volume at normal listening levels and note the position of the volume control.
Now move the speakers together facing one another with the drivers directly opposite one another and about 1" (2cm) apart.
Reverse the cables to one speaker only such that they are out of phase, reset the volume control to the previously noted level, put your CDP on repeat, hit play and come back 4 days later.
As an alternative if you want to avoid the CDP wear and tear, you could use a tuner and an all night station as your source.
Once your speakers are run in, remember to change the cables back to in-phase connection
