Just wondered as I installed sub at the weekend and wasnt sure if i should turn it up straight away?

If they do need to be run in, how long for and once they are, do they sound even better?

approx 20 hours to run a sub in, some people say longer, it will increase the life span of the sub.

low volume, and gradually turn it up. Ive been using the sub volume on hu, started at 0 and turned it up one every hour or so of use.
