"Musical" when describing the sound of something.

 

I have no idea what that means. There are many other terms that also make no sense when describing a sound, but I think that is the one that baffles me the most and people use it all the time.

"When I first took them out of the box and listened to them, they were harsh and I could barely listen to them.  After about 48 hours of burn-in though, they have settled down."
