My biggest worry is going at a high speed and drying out the polish too much. Despite that recommendation you found, I'm still gonna stay at 3.5 until I feel comfortable.
I agree that slower is better to learn, but eventually I think speed 6 should be used to make full use of the potential. Even if the polish breaks down much faster at speed 5 or 6, it doesn't mean you did wrong.

Most people agree that using the full potential (speed/power) of the 3401 gives a deeper / glossier finish than a perfectly exploited PC with the same products/pads.
