I think the point of breaking in a speaker is to diminish the stiffness in the cone. You will probably get that when you crank up your amp really loud for a considerable time. But yes, the neighbour thing will kick in and you'd have to put in a lot of time. Hook it up to a 200+ watt hifi system and put it on low volume for a while, then crank the volume and bass up.Don't go overboard now and blow the speaker. You will probably hear the limit of the speaker yourself.The extra bass frequencies -100 Hertz will make the speaker work harder and will force the cone to losen up.Turn the speaker cone to the floor. That helps with the work out as well. The advantage is that the high frequencies won't be so prominent too, so everything sounds less loud. The hifi solution, with the bass cranked up and a Bob Marley cd. Don't think Bob ever offended any neighbour.. or else invite them for a drink, or a smoke..
