No break in on mine.
The mind is a wonderful thing. ;-)
Harbeth Super HL5 plus Break-in
The following is an excerpt from the Harbeth User Guide:
"After exercising your new Harbeths for just a few hours they will be fully ready for a lifetime of enjoyment".
After going to the Harbeth site it pretty much said the same thing as the user guide but added that the supertweeter would take a little longer to break-in.
My new Harbeth's sounded the same after I put on around the first 100 hours so I believed the above until around the 120-150 hour mark I noticed (or so I think) the midrange sounding more realistic to the point of more enjoyment! I don't know if I'm actually hearing an improvement or I'm just getting used to the Harbeth sound since the 5's are my first experience with Harbeth in my listening room.
I would like to hear others that have owned or still own the Super 5's and whether or not you have experienced the same thing as me or something else.
