Thanks guys, I need to get a copy of that dictonary. What a salesman... I also had someone else tell me something like Recomended Magnitude Sample, and that just sounds like someone who has no clue what they are saying, but spew out words they have heard and don't know what they mean. Thanks Again.

First I must say that Ray's sub-caption is right on... "No Life". please don't take that as a slant on your person, you are of a very high intelect and that is duely noted. As to the question at hand, everything that incures some sort of movement will breakdown. The entire physics involved in reproducing a sound wave via a speaker will cause a movement that degrades the inital state of the compounds used in diaphragm. This will cause a curve of sorts somewhat shaped like the bell-curve with a much higher inital point than termination point. It will have some inital increase in flex (the break-in) how much increase will depend totally on the elements used, as well as the shape, width, arc, and so on. If you were to graph the amount of air movement to time you would recieve a resultant graph that is slanted slightly left. So unless you plan on replacing your speakers more often than the delta T of the graph to reach it's inital point from the peak, the "break-in" will be of little importance to you. This does not mean it does not exist, nor does it mean it does not increase the sound quality or life span of the material used in the speaker. Allowing the speaker become "flexable" at a constant rate will provide a longer lasting speaker. As to sound quality, you should reach the same or very near the quality of a broken in speaker with a speaker not broken in over some time.

I know that RMS is the rating for the maximum continious power, I was wondering what the acronym actually stood for. if you know please post it. please only post if you know what it means not what you think it means... like random magnitic signal, and yes that is what a salesman at a audio store tried to tell me it was. Thank you
