General audio topics that don't fit into specific categories.

Why is it that we see only reports of improvement, never degradation, during the "break-in" period?

It seems to me that with the natural variation in individual units, there should also be variations in break-in behavior. Each unit should reach its peak at a slightly different time. That peak may be, say, after 100 or 200 hours, after which it settles into a level that doesn't match the peak. Or the peak may be new out of the box, and it doesn't perform as well after run-in. I'm suspicious of the unending mantra of reviewers that everything only gets better over time.
