Morrow IC's

I like Morrow cables, and am currently breaking in a new 1.1 that is 1.5 meters (needed more room for my Schiit Loki) and it already seems to be working fine, although Morrow claims I need 400 more hours of break-in. They're giving away a free 1.1 IC now (Morrow did that before) with the purchase of, I think, anything, and I took advantage of that when I bought a pair of balanced ICs from them a while back. I also don't think purchasing their "break-in "service is as much fun as not as I like experiencing the "breaking of in" myself…a learning experience from which I've learned one thing: They're great sounding cables right out of the box…literally…they come in a box...

My first set of >Blue Jean Cables arrived yesterday. MA-3’s. Quickly connected my Lounge to my amp and I must say, wider soundstage and a crispness I had not yet experienced. I played again the first record I played on the MA-3’s  and then switched back to the BJC’s I was using before to compare again. definitely not placebo.

Looking forward to the big payoff and ordering another pair when I am able to again.

Is it me or should Morrow should change their name to “break in” cables. Every thread for the past 7 or 8 years talk about this long tedious break in. Who wants to do that? Really. One should plug and play. A little opening up should be expected. However, one should not pay and then have to go thru a space shuttle procedure checklist for weeks before enjoying. In one thread, people were actually talking about the burn in reverses if not played a while. Others saying you should “re burn in” when moving cable to a different component.

Listening to music should not be this difficult

With all due respect to @dorkwad's comments above, most of which I agreed with,  I used to have Morrow MA4's and were pretty happy with them.  However I bought some Teo GC's - tempted by the promise of amazing performance - and spent about 400 hours burning those in.  They sounded distinctly worse than the Morrows so I eventually sent them back and put the Morrows back in.

If balanced interconnects are on your mind, let me know.
