As a side note, I notice that you were referencing listening on the tour. One thing Ncores love is to be good and warmed up as well. I found them to settle down optimally after about 6 hours. I never shut them off.

 3 days with them translated to only a few hours for most people.

Thanks for the nice comments clarky.  Sorry if I sound like your Dad, I do sort of treat you that way because, well, I'm definitely old enough to be. 

Anyway, one of the high points with N-cores is that they didn't seem to need long break-in or warm-up periods.  I left them on playing music for overnight and although there was a very slight improvement, I wouldn't swear I could hear it in DBT.  They were pretty darn good right out of the box.
