I have no experience with your particular speakers but did have a very similar one with a pair of Paradigm Studio 60s. When I first hooked them up there was such a harsh quality to vocals that I considered returning them. It took a few weeks for them to break in and smooth out. A very fine speaker after break in. You should give them time -- as long as warranty doesn't run out. Good luck.
100+ hr of break in VS 5 hr break in, Help
I have a new pair of wharfedale diamond 9.6's that I and an audiophile friend broke in for about 5-9 hours with his plinius amp base system. I have been very dissapointed at the sound, and when I called to return them I was told that 100+ hours would be needed for them to open up.
I wanted to know if anyone had experience with these speakers, and if a break-in such as this could change the sound, especially the detail and transparency of the midrange on strings/choir from bad to acceptable? Thoughts would be appreciated; I am new to spending gobs of cash on audio equipment, and am getting a little worried. Of course the question will answer itself in a few days. Just for reference I will be driving these with a new-to-me (used) Krell 300iL amp.
Thanks
