Revel salon 2 break-in period?


I recently purchased a pr of salon 2’s which had approximately 100 hours of non continuous use.
Salon owners who purchased their speakers new what did it take in hours to fully break them in ?
Also what changes did you hear when they reached the point of being fully broke in ?

Hiendmoe:

Boy, have you received some ugly responses

I have the Ultima Studio2 & were broken in when received 
I would suspect 100 hrs would be required
I have found amps make a large difference in bass on these Revels
Mac’s  hi end is sweet but bass is soft
Bryston pounds the bass, like adding extra woofer, but high end is strident ( to me)
ML sounds good overall, but never got me excited & I never thought Revel was that good, or make me want to buy
Pass Labs really made me jump up and really listen, great bass, nice details on high end

Summary, I’m liking the Studios as the tweeter is really delicate & revealing 
Break-in is part of deal , but a couple hundred hours may not be needed( more of you breaking  in to the new sound)

100 hrs would be my guess

What amp you running ? & what sound do you think you are missing?    Bass? Etc

They are really nice speakers
