I found that with new earphones and speakers, I listen for the differences but over time, my ears/mind 'recalibrates' to align with my previous memory of known music and/or to maximise the enjoyment of any music. I guess human judgment is kind of unreliable as our mind has the tendency and ability to 'meet halfway' with the subject.It's not the speakers (or electronic components) that "break in", it's our ears.
As in adapting to the sound of the new equipment.
....Or is it just me? Haha
