I was under the impression that all speakers required break-in, but I have read on another forum that yours do not. I have not found any info on your website on the subject. What do you recommend?
WGS speakers do sound a lot better "just out of the box" than any others I've tested/owned, however, yes, they do get a little sweeter and open after some play-in ... but it takes a lot less time. For instance, a modern Jensen will arrive very tight and strident and requires a fair amount of break in before it even sounds decent - a WGS speaker will arrive sounding already loose and broken-in, but it will still sweeten up a little through the first few weeks of regular playing. That's been my experience, anyway.

Great to know!
I have read of having to hook up a filament transformer to other brands an run them for 40+ hours to get them to sound like they should.
This info makes it just that much more attractive to buy your speakers. Thanks!
