thanks,but now it doesn't matter.my buddy(and i use that in the past tense) jumped the gun and wanted his speakers. so he's on his own,and he has no idea how to hook up anything,nor did he want to learn.he'll be wishing he paid attention when he:
a.smokes something.
b.has to pay someone.

but it seems like i read somewhere that some companies recommend 100 hours breakin.
