it's kind of a placebo thing to be honest, just use a sine wave for an hour or 2 and that should be enough to smooth it out

Not really, there's proof that it works.

 

Standard burn in time is 20 hours. Just plug them in and play music and loud volumes.

it's minimal though, also do you think it's fine to just have them running for 20 hours straight?

Yeah it's fine. Just electricity moving a coil. I wouldn't say minimal, I've had a few pair of headphones sound much better overtime. It depends on each headphone.
