I have new IC and speaker cables installed in my system after a few hours of use I suddenly feel there is more energy on the left side than the right side and the music has shifted more to the right what possible could be the reason.
Is it a burning process or what do you all think

Could be a faulty IC. One of my balanced IC had a cracked solder connection and caused similar problem. Took it to a guitar shop, got it fixed for $20. If yours are new, I’d exchange for another pair.
Try swapping left for right and see if problem changes sides.

After installation, I have never touched them or moved then so chances of desoldering or cracking of cable is not possible IMO

Swop the connections (L to R, R to L) at one end of the cable, and see if the energy follows the swop. If it does, you know you have some kind of problem with the new cables.

If your IC's have arrows indicating direction, are they both pointing the same way? The arrow indicates grounding and maybe the cables are still breaking in.
