Headphone break in?

I'm not aware that I said anything like '..we are simply fooling ourselves into hearing differences that are not real.' Seems more like I set the objective aspect aside since, as I said, "I'm not familiar with the science of headphone drivers," and so obviously would have nothing illuminating to say regarding that side of things. 

To say that there is also another aspect of 'burn-in,' for the ordinary, non-engineer, that is subjective is not to deny that there is an objective component. That I refrained from saying anything about the objective aspect is not to be understood as my denying that there is an objective side.

I am a member of ASR, and of Head-fi, and TapeHeads. Not sure why being on ASR makes me an 'ASR minion,' rather than just someone who likes to browse different audio forums. Is there a mandate that there is to be no intermingling between them?

Thanks, though, for reminding me why I've not posted on here much lately. Good discussion.

Misunderstanding.

Didn't say you were a minion specifically.

Didn't call you out.

Just saying.

And you're welcome.

@mastering92 : Well said. I have nothing else to say, but reinforce what you already articulated.

Well… good. I am glad you understood. Please continue to stay away from here. Thank you 

I like to call it seasoning as opposed to burn in or break in. Why would one want to burn or break? Seasoning or conditioning. Or in aviation we call it run-up.
