I view the concept of break-in with one eyebrow arched; we are crossing the line into audio voodoo here, in my opinion. However, the one component category where the idea of break-in makes most sense is with loudspeakers: The idea that moving machined parts with tight tolerances may take some time to loosen up and get in the groove seems reasonable to me. I admire my fellow audio writers who have the willpower to let things run in for days or weeks before they pay any attention to it, but I’m too impatient usually—with something new, I want to hear results right away.
