Although IMHO, it seems a bit pointless testing headphones

In all my years of using headphones in a pro capacity, I've not found any
that needed 'breaking in'. And if they 'altered' in any way after some use
- what's to stop them continuing to alter as time goes by?

Perhaps some audiophile nerdy thing I guess, but most of the reviews
mentioned it. I suppose it stands to reason that most widgets such as
these will indeed change over many years, so I guess they could in part
be right, perhaps not to the extent where the sound quality is actually
noticeable on the short term, but it must change as the drivers wear,
and corrosion affects the connections.
