Sony DVD/SACD Player Break-in Time?

Lanny,
Every CD/DVD player I've owned has come into it's own after two weeks of playing 24/7. My experience has been that redbook and SACD each require their own break-in period.

my experience is pretty much the same as Tvad's with the couple DVD/CD/SACD players I have owned. I actually paid more attention to the break in sound of my current player and noticed that every format seemed to need it's own "break in"...go figure...I don't have the expertise to say why. I pretty much listened to cd's and sacd's exclusively for the first couple weeks (and let one or the other format play on repeat 24/7) breaking in those two portions...and when I watched my first dozen or so dvd's after that, they didn't sound very good...now after using the DVD portion more, the sound on a DVD is getting better also.

Wow, it sure takes a while!
Thanks a million for the great replies, so far, guys!

Give them both, at least, two weeks each on 24/7.

Will all of this long playing time cause any excessive wear to any of the moving mechanisms, or laser inside the player?
Any chance of excessive heat build up that might damage the digital disc playing in the player for such a long period of time?
Thanks again!
