i burned my k701 for about a week already.
i dont do 24/7 burn in. i spent the first 30hrs with various types of music mostly bassy ones on listening volume.
and 70hrs with pink noise at below listening volume. 20min pink noise with 4 min silence on continuous.
my listening volume is at 60 with source(pc) and amp volume knob between 10 and 11 o clock position(m stage).
my pink noise burning session volume is at 44 on source and knob is unchanged.
during the burning process i check on my k701 every now and then. i notice strange changes during the process.
-bass dissapeared. treble became more piercing than my ad700.
-treble dissapeared and bass appeared.
-treble came back smoother along with bass.
-sound became dull.
-sound reverted back to normal with more detail and sound stage. smooth treble and tight and deep bass.
-treble dissapeared again and bass got a little weaker.
-at 100hr mark. bass returned to normal, even more detailed and soundstage. more distant sounding. instrumental separation increased. some female vocals are piercing. a bit of sibilance came back.
cant even be called bright anymore. sounded a bit dull.
during the burn in period, is it normal for certain sonic characteristics to come and go?
is the sound at the 100hr mark its permanent sound or will it change again?
can someone with a fully burned in k701 describe me its characteristics?
