A guy at my work recently got a new amp. He said that he had to break it in, before he was going to push it. Is this something that I am nieve about, because I have never heard of such a thing?

if somethings going to work it will work right when you get it. there is no need to break it in. especially an amp. all i know is if you let subs break in properly then they get louder. but ive never heard anything about breaking in amps. maybe his system sucks? and he just doesnt want people to know it does so he says he cant turn it up loud.

Mark it's actually a basketball goal. Hence why, in basketball, made shots are recorded as field goals. That is also the reason why shot attempts are recorded as field goal attempts. The same principle applies for field goal percentage.

Reece actually only the 3's are recorded as field goals and field goal attempts. 2's are just shots and baskets.

In the 8 years i played basketball the only people i heard call the hoop a goal were forigne exchange kids. but they hardly know what basket ball is and could hardly even say hoop correctly. they would always put werid accents and stuff on it lol.

all the true ballers call it a hoop.
you just aint a true baller lol. jk.

lol you guys are retarded.........


Extreme audiophiles will "burn in" their cabling, speakers, and amplifiers. But this is something that i've never seen applied in car audio.

Playing a certain frequency and/or tones will "burn" or create a specific "path" for electrons to travel.
This is commonly practiced in high end systems where any and every measure is taken to obtain the ultimate sound quality. This affects the amplifiers components, the voice coils of the transducers, and especially the connections/cabling.
If the cables are moved even slightly, this "path" is broken. Signal path can be very delicate.
Some even use "sav" to upgrade interconnections, power cords, speaker cords, ect. I have some here I use in my hi-fi home system.
It's called SilClear.
Heres a link to the stuff I use.
