Do speaker cables need a burn in period?

Oh, like it couldn’t be something else in the cable that caused the “sheen,” you know, other than the dielectric? Get real! Was the cable burned in? 😛

No one here has the courage to talk about everyone's brain burn-in period though. Neurons are far more adaptable than speaker cables. We are very good at the process of belief.

finally got some data back on cable burn in that saystoyota better than ferraribelden better than qedplain jane better than jane darling
damn i was fooled.

Was the cable burned in?

Sure, it has been "cables" not just one and, as discussed earlier, I use the Audiodharma Cable Cooker on all my cables since I don't care to spend my time listening for burn-in changes or keeping a log of how something sounds over many hundreds of hours.

>>>>Fools rush in where angels fear to tread. Here we go again with the Anti Audiophile screed that it’s all psychological, audiophiles are easily fooled, directionality and burn in can’t possibly be real so audiophiles must be either lying or hallucinating. Maybe they’re two beers over the line. 🍺 🍺 Placebo effect, expectation bias, alien abduction, mass hysteria. 😂 Pick your fav.
