For Your Edification and Enjoyment re "Burn In", etc.

Put a fork in me I am done. Mahgister makes some valid points that will no doubt be lost on some. 

Denverfred,

if you want empirical, Abbey Road Studios uses Van Damme cables throughout, 2.5km of it, at £4 per metre. If spending more than that was necessary, I think they would. Good enough for them, is good enough for me. I use it throughout too. But not 2.5km !

So audio2design is Frank? I think Frank put something in Dougs drink they last time they hung out. Cool.
