Speaker Break In...? Or listener “Break In”?


Im interested in opinions regarding which has more impact; a speaker changing sound over the first 100-200 hours or a listener becoming more in tune with a certain speakers qualities and characteristics.

So annoying to hear categorical claims such as 'all do' or 'all don't.'  Does it not occur to the people making such claims that 'some may' and  'some may not?'  Like many claims of physical characteristics in audio, these should be amenable to physical measurements. I spent 5 years as the "human factors" postdoc in a department of electrical engineering and saw this being done all the time. Are there no real engineers in audio?

Notice I don't say measurements that people can detect any difference.  That type of measurement is much more difficult to carry out given the inherently noisy nature of human testing.
