Break In Question?

All this talk about “break in” has made me think of something that l have never even considered before.

There has been some debate that equipment with moving parts benefit the greatest. Speakers leading the field because of their mechanical drivers.

So what has suddenly dawned on me is……. 
Do tonearms need a “break in” ??

l personally have never heard a difference other than with an immediate change of model. Is there anyone who thinks that a tonearm improves from being broken in, just like a car engine?

Burn in and consistency depends on the sum of inductors in the design and to somewhat the pcb track design.

The more expensive the design the more these things are likely.

The times involved long span are 9 months 3 weeks or 11 months 13 days for full tuning.

Computers are the worst.

@douglas_schroeder What is your position on amplifiers sound, especially class A that's freshly turned on vs 2 hr of warmup?

mylogic,

Not sure about tonearms, but cartridges for sure.

My opinion is anything with a wire can require burn-in, this pretty much means everything in audio.
