Any tips for breaking in 2235H recones? Did a search but couldn't find much under the search parameters I used.:(

Just play them. Find some material with good bass extension sit back and enjoy. You could always dump 30Hz into them from a signal generator. Run them out of phase to keep the noise down for a couple of hours, that should work. Just watch the X-Max if you do this. I find the other alternative more fun.

Just play them. Same-same for new cones. Be patient. I installed a new pair of 2245's, and was surprised at how long break-in was (home, middle-aged listening environment :p ). Sure, they sounded fine at the outset, but nothing like they did 6- and 12-months later... :)
