wharfedale elysian 4 - break-in
Just set up a new pair of wharfedale elysian 4.
Out of the box the bass sounds boomy and the rest thin / convoluted.
This should be taken with a grain of salt.
But after break-in I would like a more controlled bass and a more open midrange and treble.
How did your pair of elysian 4 sound before and after break-in? For me break-in are at least 100 hour. It’s the drivers that need to loosen and the filter components / cables that need some juice flowing through them.
When I got my DI they were very thin sounding. But they are using professional drivers that are very stiff. They really needed a VERY long break in period.
The funny thing is that the DI bass are more controlled with two 10”. The Elysian has two 8” that are less controlled.
I have coroner bass traps from floor to ceiling and membrane bass traps at the side of the speakers.
I have the wharfedale elysian 4 for a 30 days trial.

@martin-andersen how did the Elysian 4's sound after break-in? Bass get tighter? Are you happy? |
The Elysian 4's are very good speakers, but only if you can get them at a good price. The tweeter is the stare of the show. Super smooth and detailed. But I think most will be happy with the Elysian 4's. |
