Can excessive gear burn-in lead to burn-in burnout? Can you be burned by listening to non burned-in gear? Can burn-in lead to burn up in extreme cases? If you lower the temperature of a listening room does your cable reverse burn-in? Is reverse burn-in also a form of burnout? Somebody give me a QUINTIC!
Cable re-burn in
How long does it take for an already burnt in cable to re-burn in back to optimal? I'm doing a lot of interconnect and speaker cable comparisons and sometimes a cable will sit unused for several hours to several days. Is it a fair comparison to A/B one cable against another when cable "B" has sat for unused foe 3 days?

I have always been skeptical about cable burn in. Last week I recommissioned a pair of bi-wire AQ Caldera speak cables that I plan to sell here on AGon. Initially the sound I go was terrible. Dark, hazy sound with no stage depth or width. I would have immediately swapped them back out but had worked up a sweat installing them so I let them be and kept music on throughout the day as I tooled around the house. The next day things sounded much better and by last night I was considering leaving them in and selling my Transparent Ultra XL cables instead. |
