@hifi80sman, @vstolpner, @actorlife, sorry for being thick, but I asked about burning in buds before and one of you said you use a burn-in playlist in spotify and then run some sweeps. How does everyone else burn in their buds? Also, is it a specific playlist? are you running sweeps from audiocheck.net etc?

5 min in preheated oven at 100°C

Jazz/Rock flac files music on my Cayin N3 one day at listening vol and Pink noise one day and don't play too loud just enough. Sometimes I'll rotate for a week on both. It's funny never burn-in my TWS cause they better have treble or back you go bitch.

Wanted to mention, I picked up the Anker Soundcore Liberty Neo TWS', I tried using them a couple different times but I couldn't keep them in for more than a couple min. each time. Sound was a touch above average for the price point, V-shape, high highs, decent bass, but the earbud stems are LOOOOOOONG! Unless you have some Deep ear canals I wouldn't recommend them. The build quality is excellent, some of the best I've seen. It's too bad, I really wanted to like them but ergonomics just wouldn't work with my anatomy.

I use a Spotify playlist called "Headphone Burn In" with a smiley face for cover art. Here's the link to it

https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1lF6ZfObwunPKi0migPywt?si=RxOKWJs6Si2gbUj2bgyakw

Edit: forgot to mention volume - when burning in I go for a notch or two above the loudest I would listen to it, not necessarily at full volume.

If you go to 175-180 degrees the earphones start to caramelize and make the music sound sweet as sugar.

Awesome! Thank You! So, do you just leave them on until they die, charge and repeat etc. I did run some sweeps on the T5's I was really impressed. It never ceases to amaze me how some songs/albums have such terrible production while others are just phenomenal.

I don't normally burn in unless there is a characteristic I'm not liking. If that's the case, I'll download some frequency sweeps on YouTube and loop them for 24 hours (total playing time, recharge in between) at 80-100% volume (depending on the issue). If there is an imbalance, I may only run the burn-in on one 'bud in an effort to balance them out. I will say, however, rarely does this seem to change any annoying characteristic, so my return rate is probably about 90%.

I usually just run it a few hours at a time here and there as I can, between actual use

So annoying for a Norwegian... neither Tranya, Mpow or Kissral are possible to order to Norway :frowning2:
Guess I just have to be happy with my Lypertek Tevis for $89,90 incl shipping and tax/toll... and I really am. They are the best I've had! (And I have/have had Senn MTW, B&O E8 2,0, Anbes 359, QCY T2C, Tiso i4, Syllable s101...)

Yeah, it kind of sucks that we don't have a "local" Amazon. I just stick to AliExpress for importing chi-fi to Norway.
