Yeah head-fi loves the myths. Like you say grain of salt. Maybe a truckload. It's up to you want to beleive it or not but I'm here to tell you it's horse shit. Macc believes it tho so I'm sure you all will be stuffing your cans in a pillow for a week lol.

I just picked up a pair of Sennheiser 555 HD's from Amazon on Black Friday at a great deal. They are honestly the best pair of headphone's I've ever owned, and they even have a default 1/4" plug that comes with a 1/4"-1/8" adapter which is great for jamming on my guitar amp at night.

Headfi.org wrote:When speaking of headphones, ‘burn in’ is the term used for the settling oft he design parameters of the diaphragms into their intended state. The physical process is that the diaphragms loosen up through use and eventually reach a point that could be considered final. A similar situation is breaking in a new pair of shoes.
This is done through listening to music for hours on end (not a problem if you use them all the time) or just playing pink noise or filter sweeps through them. I just started burning in my hd280's even though I've had them for over 6 months and I have noticed a bit of a difference of how they sound. I used pink noise btw with a sound generator.
Some people may disagree but to each his own. Head-fi.org recommends it.
Opinions are like assholes. Everyones got one.
Take with a grain of salt.
Safe man yeah i was thinking it might have something to do with that. but will bare it in mind. Cheers!
