From my own unscientific observations, most of the sound change during break-in is in the upper mid-bass and higher frequencies... well above a standard 60hz test tone. I don't ...

Maybe the "scientific test" does not have to include a perfect test environment. As long as a new, and a broke-in speaker are tested in the same environment, then comparative test results can be shown. All we would like to know is if there is a sound difference between the two... the trick would be having the testing plan together ...
