I agree entirely with what you said. Of course the second calibration will hold longer - that's why I said "settle" = "stop rapidly degrading".My point was that the break-in period itself does NOT result in better performance. It's the recalibrating after the break-in period has degraded the performance that matters. And, I believe, the second calibration will result in no better picture than the first calibration. It will just hold longer, that's why it's recommended to wait the 100 hours.
No one here who advocates "breaking in" an SACD player as a means of improving its performance has ever suggested that it be recalibrated or adjusted in any way after the break in period. They simply suggest that the player will "magically" sound better all by itself. I don't buy this.
(BTW: I don't confuse "breaking in" with "warming up".)
