Thanks Drummer, just bought the player on the 'Gon and inserted in my system. When I asked the previous owner if it was broken in yet he said, "no, not really." When I asked how many hours the BCD-1 had on it he said "less than 100." Of course, now that the BCD-1 is in my system after shipping and moving cables around, everything will need time to settle in. I'm wanting to know from other owners when they felt the player was fully broken in. It's been playing on repeat since I put it in my system.
