Burning in period Nautilus 800?

I would guess at 60 days of 24/7 and a whole lot longer if one doesn't do the 24/7--- and ---I'm prety sure more will be had beyond that 60 day period.

Avguygeorge is correct. The rate of break-in will also of course depend upon what you choose to break them in with. A break-in track will be more efficient, but intolerable if you are within earshot of the speakers.

I have been living in apartments in large cities for the last fifteen years, and when I buy something for my stereo, I always yearn for a big house with a garage where I could stick speakers or components for unbridled, 24/7 break-in.

B&W Drivers should need only a few minutes or maximum of a few hours. If it still sounds different after a week then your old drivers may have been damaged/over driven or something is wrong (for example did you make sure that the seal is airtight around the new drivers that you installed?).

I'd stay away from suspect products that claim extremely extensive break-in periods, as this is indicative of poor design, poor choice of unstable materials or poor manufacturing tolerances. The parts that most flex in a good driver (surround and spider) are specifically designed to have as minimal effect as possible on the sound you hear.

All the drivers are brand new. The low (4), the mid and high units are all replaced. It sounds a lot better than a week ago, only I miss the power in the low freq. I was wondering if people who got the 800's brand new how long it took for before the 800's where broken in. Especially the drivers of the low freq.
