The notion of burn-in for headphones, often touted as an enhancement process, lacks scientific substantiation. Modern headphone technologies, particularly those with dynamic drivers, don't require extended break-in periods. Claims of improved sound quality through burn-in are subjective and possibly influenced by psychological factors. Empirical evidence contradicts the myth, challenging the widespread belief in this audio phenomenon.
