New ME-1 owner here. Also first time poster here. I just picked mine up about a month ago.

I do have two questions.

What do you think break in time is? I'd read it could take upwards of 1500 hours to fully break them in. The previous owner indicated they may have had up to 200 hours of play time in his 2+ years of ownership. I've got 100-150 hours on them myself now. I have no complaints with their sound now. If they get better as they break in I won't be complaining.

Also, what would be a good speaker cable match for these? They are currently connected with Nordost SPM. I'm in the mood for an update and want the cable to be a good match for these. Right now they are driven by an Edge M8m amplifier and an AR LS17SE preamp with Nordost SPM interconnect also. From time to time they will also be used in my other system which consists of Plinius SA-103 amp and Aesthetix Calypso preamp and I plan to use the speaker cables with that set up also.

Thanks for any input.
