i just bought a couple of xenon d2's and was wondering how long i should let them break in for. i drive lots and for my job right now i drive all night last night for 4 hours and tonight for 8 or 9. anyone know about how many hours i should wait before i crank them? i herd that these kind take a while to break in.

just play them like you normally would they will be fine they wont break from playing them hard only from clipping. once they break in they will just sound better and get louder

Ya, I just got my new sub put in and I play it loud and it's fine. No problems at all and it sounds better everyday.

I took a video of my sub the day I got it, and i'm going to take another one in the same conditions and see if there realy is a such thing as "break in". I will be making the second video pretty soon, and I will post it when I do.

well when i 1st got my JLs i didnt wait and just cranked them but thats how i blew the voice coils. i think you really do need to break them in cause if theyre stiff and then you just crank them youll f*ck sh*t up. but i live in norther bc too so the cold coulda done it when i cranked them. :P

When my Q arrived it felt like the cone had a metal spider. Very stiff. My Mag as well. Time loosened them up like a pair of shoes. I like my worn in shoes!
