... what is Settling Time in cables and interconnects...


Hello to all...

Was reading on a cable/interconnect manufacturers' site that they recommend min 350 preferrably 450 hrs Burn-In time, and 2 to preferably 24 hrs Settling Time (after plugged and unplugged).

Have never heard the term Settling Time: what is it, how is it done, what effect would it have if done or not done, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY - would like to hear from someone who has actually done this and your impressions...

THANKS!

Once upon a time this thread was about settling time (rather than burn-in), i.e. time a fully burned-in cable needed to settle after it was disconnected and/or moved.
a thread going off topic !!!   it actually seems most here equate the 2
100 years from now probably nothing will matter to any of us so what’s your point? This is here and now.

No, you don’t have to be an audiophile to participate here but some experience/knowledge would be helpful don’tcha think?

Please always remember: Burn-in is better than burn-out.
