Randy, you forgot you were logged in as sirquack, not Bbigwyres! You've given yourself away! Mystery solved!

No break in of the speaker. There may be, however, a "break in" period with your ears and brain as they process the new sound of the speaker over any other speaker that they have become accustomed to. This is just the amount of time it takes for you to realize that you have some quality speakers that are reproducing the music and sound more closely to what was mixed in the studio. You may hear musical notes and other details that were missed before, but that is all a good thing...
I guess that the only thing that I would be concerned about, which was already mentioned, was if the speakers were exposed to really cold or maybe even really hot weather. Let them warm or cool closer to room temperature (sounds like I am thawing a turkey or something) and then fire them up. But the temperature thing is fairly safe advice for just about anything mechanical or electrical.... Not always needed, but not a bad idea.

ha ha, ok I'll take the title of Bbigwyres, even though it is not me. Kinda like Sirquack, that is actually a name a friend of mine used to use for some other forums and emails, so I started using it. I've been thinking about having Axiom change my name, hmmm, maybe BBBigwyres.

Yoy guys are funnnny! LOL..
Thanks for the advice as usual.. I've heard folks that have given good reviews saying the Axiom didn't sound so good at first but left them on for a lenghty time as they left the house, and "viola", thus the good review.. I'll prefeace saying that the VP150 is running minus a driver right now, and I haven't got the opertunity to upgrade the mains yet, just the surrounds and the center, so I'm having a mixed 5.1 sound too.. I just was wondering as to the validity to "break-in" period as I've heard great things from "right out of the box" as well.. SO I was wondering if they were like a fine wine, -and gets better with time. Thankk you!!!!

yes your brain will adjust with time. also keep in mind that poorly recorded cd's will sound poor on good speakers.
