Do speaker cables need a burn in period?
See the requirements for expert testimony from the Federal Rules of Evidence below. Can you imagine a thread here trying to define who is qualified to provide expert opinion on cables, fuses, and wire burn-in? That should be good for several months of worthless but entertaining back and forth. Rule 702. Testimony by Expert Witnesses A witness who is qualified as an expert by knowledge, skill, experience, training, or education may testify in the form of an opinion or otherwise if: (a) the expert’s scientific, technical, or other specialized knowledge will help the trier of fact to understand the evidence or to determine a fact in issue; (b) the testimony is based on sufficient facts or data; (c) the testimony is the product of reliable principles and methods; and (d) the expert has reliably applied the principles and methods to the facts of the case. |
I have not seen these outlandish claims cable manufacturers make. What are you guys talking about? Can someone do me a solid and post some of them. "A note of caution. Moving a cable will, to some degree, traumatize it." I am not sure if it would be accepted as outlandish, but bizarre or silly it is. Note: Above statements are from an article provided as a reference two days ago by........geoffkait. |
They may not be outlandish. They may be just right in Neverland or any other fantasy land. For normal living people, they are a sad joke. Relax your room, you will feel better. So will your cable. Nervous rooms and traumatized cables are a big problem in Hi-Fi. It is not all I got. I use your references so you can easily find it yourself, too. |
