    Test tones aren't used to break in anything, only to set up. Just let it play and it will break in on it's own. Some things can't be rushed, like fine wine.

    I am pretty sure there is silent LFE pieces to get the woofer moving but keeping it silent. Very surprised that no one has ever heard of them of those, if it was the old forum then some one would have more than likely been in the know but they all left.

    I have some discreet test tones I've collected over the years. I could run them through WinRAR and email them to you.
