Does Power Cord Require Burn-In To Sound Good?


I recently bought a new power cord but there isn’t much difference in sound quality between this new cord and the previous Wireworld Elektra 7 which it replaces. The cords are used on the DAC.

Any ideas if the cord needs to burn in to open up and sound better? It currently has about 5 hours on it and I think I prefer the sound quality of the previous cord which costs 10 times cheaper.

Any thoughts appreciated.

for really good burn in / aging of the very best ac cords, it takes about 12-18 years, depending on gauge of the conductor

so you better get started now!!!  😱

Yep, aside from real science and the principals of physics, cable burn in is a thing just like saturation is a thing. Auditory hallucinations can be obtained for the price of a coat hanger.

Thank you very much, I’ll return the insult AND raise you one. You’re a mighty fine person, I hope to get to know you..

I know who you are.... Funny guy.... we would have a great time together...

Cables are broken in not BURNT IN... Maybe that might help...

Let me see, take the 25,000.00 cables out of  tbakin6347 stocking and put in some manners and Maybe a little chunk of coal. :-)

Happy Holiday

With great Respect...
Hey, I am developing a fondness for oldhvymec's unusual ramblings. Sure, I don't have the same "belief" that he has in the differences between cables, but buried inside many of those posts is a much healthier skepticism than a lot of audiophiles.
