New REL R-528 Subwoofer break in period....

Greetings
I purchased a new REL R-528 sub.

I'm not real familiar with REL's subs,so...what should I expect for a break-in period?

A local Audio store was going out of business and everything was 40% off, so I couldn't help myself.

Can someone tell me some changes to expect?

Thanks

Subs should be seen and not really heard. I wouldn't expect anything different.

If there's one component that is less likely to be noticeably "break-in sensitive" it would be a sub. I have a REL and I think if it's working properly and set up right, Stringreen's comment is absolutely correct...any subtle changes in the amp response or speaker loosening up are likely to be minor at best as RELs can be seamless in how they integrate into a system.

I think there would be a break in of some sorts, at least the amp in the sub....thanks for the comments.

Indeed, but the nature of a good sub makes it less obvious.
