"It takes a K50 about 2 months to burn in properly," he told me. "It sounds too thin and sharp for the first 200 hours. If you turn it off for any length of time, it will take about 3 days to get back to optimum performance."
What kind of stupidity is this bollocks. Are these people insane? How does a piece of electronics and circuitry lose performance. It doesn’t have any sort of memory or setting to retain or lose performance.
Capacitors, of course, do. Whether this is audible, is completely debatable. When I read such reviews however, my brain burns (not "burns in", sadly it just burns).
