Shure E5C break-in period

With just over 60 hours of use at various levels it could be safe to say that these do benefit from break-in. They sound better now.

Never really thought about this too much - other cans probably work this way.

Because these were given to me.

UE10's supposedly are top dog in IEM's. We'll shall see.

most all speakers/headphones loosen up after break in.
