Revel Tweet Break-in after repairs

Hi All,

My Revel Salon speaker is going back to the factory today for repairs. Most likely only to replace the high frequency tweeter up front. I was wondering whether a new tweeter will require break-in time before I get the optimal sound reproduction from it?

I strongly believe that my speaker (left one) got damaged when I played the new Barbra Striesand Dual-Disc remaster of her Guilty disc. I played it through my modified Sony SCD-1 player (Vacuum State Level 4.5 mods). When I played this disc I thought what a crappy sounding disc. There was a warbling sound coming from the damaged speaker and it wasn't Bab's voice doing the warbling. The speaker was fine prior to that listening session.

I guess it serves me right for supporting such a bad format. The disk in question is now in the trash. Anyways, I found out I only liked one song on that disc and I already had an old copy of that song.

Wrong! I serves you right for listening to such a crappy singer.

PS Yes, it will take a few weeks to get the tweeter to break in and sound good, and probably a few months until it sounds exactly the same as the other one.

Good Luck!
