Running in speakers?

i'm not sure you will see an improvement with additional run-in but here's a tip (certainly not original): place your speakers face-to-face as closely as you can and run them out of phase (reverse cables at amp or speaker posts on 1 channel v. 2nd). this will allow you to play the speakers at relatively high levels with much less audible sound being produced. i recently broke in a pair of avalon eidolons, which also require 300-700 hrs. of play. i used the technique noted and also covered the speakers with thick, light quilts to further muffle them. they played continuosly for >400 hrs. with barry white: icon of love on cd repeat. this is a god-awful cd but has the best continuous low-level output of any disc i know (it's been used by my dealer/friend, who owns it, on several pairs of difficult-break-in transducers.) i don't envy the listening restrictions in your flat. my sound room is on the 1st floor (basement in us) while our bedrooms are on the 3rd; even with these distances, i had to turn down the volume on many a night during this tedious process!

Yo'Ben.Just do what you can,given your circumstances.It will just take longer.No wine before its time.I too, live in a flat;also called an apt here. How long were they demo'ed? Seems like demo stuff should already be broken in,plenty.Stick them in a closet,covered with blankets,wired out of phase,facing each other,get a burn in cd,and good luck and good hang in there!
