Yes, that's true. Could be up to 100 hours.

Yes, if you play them 3 and something hours a day and the return policy states 30 days 👍

an interesting article from kef on the subject, they certainly seem to think it can make a difference

I myself have only really heard it with one speaker and it wasn’t a subtle difference.

Speaker Break-In: Do You Need to do it or is it a Myth?

We explore whether new speakers need time to break-in, how to break them in and how the performance of a speaker can change over time.

I have to say that the KEF blog is one of the most sensible explanations from a manufacturer that I've seen to date. There's none of the usual bull product about special properties and the cause is explained simply as well as how to deal with it - basically just use it as normal with your favourite music , the only caveats being to use a good amplifier and don't damage them by playing too loud.

What about the other speaker?

Pro speakers are always run in for a time before they are put to full studio use (They have to be spot on for mixing & mastering) and is where I got the run in information in my post above, so if its good enough for them it is easily good enough for the consumer market.

Mission m74i, they took around an hour playing the same track reasonably loud, they had a kevlar type driver and they were super ridged. You literally heard the change it surprised me, but that was some 20 years ago so take that for what it is.

Never come across since.
