Dear Mr. Arduman,

Many thanks for your kind words regarding Circe and Lotus SE. The Lotus
uses an Alnico magnet midrange and all three Circe drivers are Alnico.
These take a long time to break in. Performance will continue to improve to
500 hrs. Also Black Orpheus takes about 250 hours due to the silver
content.

Thanks again.
Best regards,
Carl Marchisotto
