You HAVE to use at least 90% Yanni for the first 600 hours or you will never see full potential, youll have less crispy highs, more flatulent lows
Is it one of those changes you only notice from going to hour 599 to hour 600? :p

So, what headphones sound worse after burn-in? Yeah the first 200hours were great, but after that the bass overpowered and the treble got sibilant :D

Some Ultrasones have reportedly gotten even worse after burn-in.

That, or the cumulative hearing damage was just too much.
