Do speaker cables need a burn in period?


I have heard some say that speaker cables do need a 'burn in', and some say that its totally BS.
What say you?

Uh, Nonoise, my Irish ancestors got drunk and woke up in the Florida Territories. No, really. And, being Irish, they VOLUNTEERED to fight in every war since. 👀
Nonoise is resorting to changing the topic now that he realizes he's wrong.
Prof, do yourself a favor and check out the specs on a set of Darwin Truth II ICs and a pair of Blue Jean Cables ICs and you'll get it. The Darwins are well within spec and yet they sound demonstrably better.

So, no, I don't mean for you to chose a wire that has the wrong specs for the job. For you to infer that that was what I implied is intentionally misleading. You're better than that. Or are you?

It's those small differences (when strictly adhering to only measurements) that accounts for some of the differences in sound. Adding in construction techniques and materials used accounts for what doesn't fall into the measurements.

And, leave out the mentioning of great lengths needed to incur a measured difference as I know that when it comes to measurements. I wish I didn't need to add that caveat (but had to leave it in).

As for your last statement, I'd say your hackles are up.

All the best,
Nonoise

Andy2, give it a rest.

maritime51, I think that the Irish, after going through what they did, stood up for whoever was being oppressed at the time simply because they could relate.

All the best,
Nonoise
I’ll vouch for the Darwins, and being 1/2 Irish I’ll gladly fight over it. 👀
