Do speaker cables need a burn in period?

Interesting ancedote tarras22 or is it Steve Stone? At any rate the best thing about that test is it points out what  the objectivist admits we all have biases and can be as dogmatic as anyone else which is why the objectivist argues for  blind testing and replicability. In the case of this thread I freely admit I would probably not be a good test subject on whether a lenght of wire used for x number of hours sounds better or different than a new lenght of wire. The notion to me is preposterous.

geoffkait,
No worries, I still do good things for humanity. It is just that I tried doing a few small experiments here. Like changing direction of wires or removing the cover from an amplifier. Responses, yours included, revealed more about responders than expected. Unless one strives to uncover different personality traits/flaws of others, I would not recommend posting own results of some experiments in these threads. They do not contribute to discussion about whatever is discussed.

>>>>>Gosh, glubson, you must be the unluckiest guy in the whole wide world. A few experiments for man, one giant step backward for mankind. 👨‍🚀 Have you considered maybe getting another hobby. Macrame, perhaps, or stamp collecting.

I am not sure why some people are so hostile to cables as if the cables stole their wives :-).  I think some here just want to say outright that cables don't even make any difference but they just didn't want to appear too radical.
