40-60 hours should be all that's needed for a good break-in...try not to worry about it to much...just enjoy the music.

D-Sonic m3a-600m Mono > McIntosh MC152 > Primaluna ProLogue Premium Preamp > Oppo UDP205 > Decware ZLC > Triton Reference > Isoacoustics Gaia 2 > Canare 4S11 Speaker Cables > Audience Forte 3, Anticable L3 & Shunyata Venom PC's

Every great performance deserves an Audience!

There is a CD called "Test & Burn In CD" by XLO reference recordings that has some good tools to help you with placement. I have used it and found it helpful.

Yeah, Dan, there are some seriously powerful amps built into the Triton Towers! I can rarely turn mine up past 10:00 and often not that far, and I consider myself a bit of a bass head.
Happy listening, and enjoy the music, while we are breaking them in, like Bro Anthem said.
It is all about the music (and movies), Enjoy,
God Bless,
Wayne

Thanks guys - I'll have to see if I can track down a copy of that XLO cd.

I spent about an hour listening last night and tweaking the toe-in angle. Sounding better and better!

The XLO CD has a really handy track to help you find center spot. It has a voice track that is phase inverted when you hear it from no defined spot, you are in the sweet spot. Helps angle the speaker. Other tracks help with echo from the room and depth placement. I think its worth the money. It also has 9 tracks of reference quality recordings of classical music. Track 18 will give you a good idea of how good those speakers really are!! But as we all know what sounds best is right!

Enjoy
