Beware of the cable claiming long burn in period.

Almost all the audio equipment including speaker need burn in time.

But I had bad experience with one digital cable recently.

Some people blew the horn on it and claimed burn in time more than 100 hours.

Out of box it had lot of details but etched.

After 8 weeks (around 200 hours) it got little bit better but its overall performance is not better than other digital cable that I have had.

Now it is too late to return it.

Beware of any cable claiming more than 50 hours of burn in time.

The chance is high that you will waste your time and money.

I’ve been burning in a set of used Cardas Golden Presence RCA interconnects. I’m at 60 hrs.

The sound is exponentially better than when first connected.

These replaced a set of Parsec. These GP are a significant upgrade from the Parsec. The Parsec were a significant upgrade from my old Audioquest Topaz.

I think you need the right components, cables & recording to really get the significant increase. I think many of the naysayers have a limiting factor in their system.

I’m listening to my same reference recordings & at 60 hrs of burn in I now hear subtleties I have never heard in many times of listening.

Theres always a condescending prick in the audience, right?

If cable companies believe cables require burn in, why don't they burn them in before they sell them?
