Dynaudio breakin period

Hello
How long before a Dynaudio speaker breaks in?

I have some BM6 speakers,they have the "better" tweeter on them,but they seem to lack air a bit,treble extention, compared to some other speakers I have,so I know my system can deliver.

Any thoughts to this?

Thanks!

Thanks

My experience with Dynaudio and ATC, never ever judge them before a good 500 to 1000 hours on them. If you don't have that kind of patience (I don't) set them up facing each other (almost touching) with one speaker wired out of phase and play them for a couple of weeks then set up and enjoy...

At least 250 hours. Then the tweeters will still get better.

When running these speakers in,how loud does it have to be?

I can run them at low levels 24/7 in my basement, soft background like...

Or,are we taking -ONLY- normal listening levels for break-in?
Thanks
