[QUOTE="d0dja, post: 1021567, member: 2244"] Oops. First, it was not P5's, it was C3 (in-ear phones). Brain burn-in would not explain why my first set of C3's were a bit harsh, then I thought they mellowed. They were replaced under warranty for a cable problem, the new ones had exactly the same behaviour. The original owner bought them, used them for ten minutes and didn't like them and flogged them to me. I stuck with them for an hour or two, liked how they got better over a short amount of time and kept them forever (well, until my boet's light fingered cleaner lifted them...) If you think of the size of the drivers, even the slightest change in compliance would likely have a noticeable effect. That being said, burn-in for an hour or two I think is a thing, after that it's in your head. But YMMV. [/QUOTE]
