speaker break in


How many hours to break in AP codex speakers?

break in is psychological. If you feel the speaker needs to break in you should get rid of them and buy something that sounds perfect from the start. This is a common problem with speakers that are not custom tuned.

It will vary wildly from speaker to speaker.  My experience on my speakers has been for the first 5-10 hours after install dynamic changes in volume within a piece of music are incoherent.  Transitions from quiet to loud are poor.  This has been the case with both SEAS and Eton drivers.  This was called out to me by the engineers at Eton as something to expect.  

Over the next 10-50 hours I have not heard a significant change in the character of the sound but detail improves and the soundstage comes together more easily.  The louder they are played, the more quickly they break-in.
