speaker break-in period
Options
Hello. I recently purchased a Polk cs10 center channel to compliment my tsi100 fronts. It sounds pretty good, but I know that speakers need some time to "break-in" before they really sound their best. I was wondering what was the break-in period for the cs10? Thanks :-)
P.S. don't know if this is the rite category to post this on, if not please let me know....still new to this :-)

Don't worry about it. Like tonyb said, just listen and enjoy.If you can't hear a difference, don't waste your money.

There's no such thing as break in as far as being able to hear a noticeable difference anyway. Professional engineers have done tests and found no significant difference between a new and "broke in" speaker. Not any the the human ear would hear anyway.Yamaha HTR-5063

Why, that's just daffy.Political Correctness'.........defined
"A doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a t-u-r-d by the clean end."

I agree. I've had my cs10 for a few months now...and it sounds better each time its used...bass is more profound and present, mids and highs also improved..I'm a believer in speaker break-in lol.My Setup: Denon AVR X3600h, Polk Signature S50 Fronts w/ S30 Center and S15 Rears, LG UBK90 4K Player, TCL 6-Series 65”4k TV
