Question to those believing in speaker break in


Hej

How far apart should I put the speakers when placing them front to front and with reverse polarity on one of the speakers?
Somewhere I read 4 inches, but why not as close as you can? Totally together if you can?

OK.

But what about the distance between the speakers when placed front to front?

The sound will be much more quiet when placed without any space between.

Problem is that I have to listen at low volumes and that way it would take ages.

And that is why I am wonder about the space between the speakers. 

Thanks for your thoughts.

But my question was;  Why not put the speakers as close as you can? Totally together if you can?

Thanks you all.

The speakers are now standing (without grills) completely together, one with reversed polarity,at normal volume (checking the loudest parts of the record before).

Will give them 100 hours. 
There are many different opinions about how many hours they need (Klipsch Heresey IV). Everything from 20 hours to 500 hours (!!!!).
Hope 100 will do.
