ANOTHER ONE bites the dust...

Looking great! How long for burn in?

Burn in, well I could hear a big distinct difference from the first hour to the, I’d say 40th hour. Very slightly gradual till I got to 90 hours. And it sounded spectacular at 40 hours, I must say!

On new products burn in usually require you to past the 90day CC return date.

Typically 300 hrs before u can really hear a difference ..

Harbeth claims that their speakers will sound as good out of the box until their final day. No break in required.

However, with my new Harbeth I noticed a distinct improvement after about 3-weeks. It surprised me actually because I did not plan on any burn period for them.

Unless a manufacturer breaks the speaker in before boxing I don't see how there could not be break in time.

That was my belief also. This is why I was surprised when I read on their website that burn in is not necessary. I can say in no uncertain terms they definitely benefit from a break-in period.
