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?

Bobby only reads explanations without obvious conflict of interest.
Or maybe, just maybe, he’s as inept as you are. Oddly, perhaps, the ones with no conflict of interest do not seem to know anything about it. Just an observation.
"This energy-absorption causes the dielectric’s molecules to re-arrange themselves from a random order into a uniform order. When the molecules have been rearranged, the dielectric will absorb less energy & consequently cause less distortion."

Molecular rearrangement of dialectric by way of music signal, hmm...

That’s a hoot. If the molecules of the polymeric dielectric restructured upon playing music through the cables, the breaking of covalent bonds in the dialectric would cause the insulation to fall apart and literally disintegrate.

But we all know that doesn’t happen now, don’t we?

And please don’t tell me that the music also forms new covalent bonds.
I think the nonbelievers are overlooking the circumstantial evidence of the vast numbers of listeners that can tell a difference and the cable manufacturers that spend untold thousands of careful listening hours to perfect their products while listening to burn in.. In a court of law would this prove burn in is not a fallacy but true? Known science would be taken into consideration.

As long as there is reasonable doubt, no.
