Yup, I think most people for hardcore breakin do the out-of-phase thing with pink noise or pink noise interspersed with busy music (Prodigy "Firestarter" in my case). I turn it up more and more throughout the breakin process but always make sure the peaks are within the driver limits so I don't damage anything. After 200 hours or so if things are still a little stiff I use a tone generator to help, like a 15 hz tone for midrange/woofer (so you don't hear much but it does a great job of loosening stiff 6.5" drivers). ~24 hours a day (if it gets annoying, put speakers closer together facing each other and then put something on top like lathers of clothes to help muffle the sound leaking around the edges) x 2 weeks = 300+ hours.
