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.

And translated literally from Latin, sir, it means "the thing speaks for itself"
Quite so. If that is what you meant, then that is what you could have said. But you didn’t, you wrote:
Res ipsa loquitur
... which has a very defined meaning in addition to its literal translation. Such is the nature of language. Please don’t complain to us about your careless use of a foreign language that you seem to not grasp well.

Oh god, here we go with oldhvymec’s verbal vomitus and rhetorical mania again. He loves to entertain himself with prose only decipherable to himself. Regards

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.

Please...
First post on this thread. Then has the nerve to whine about others using poor manners towards him. Wow! Seriously obtuse.
