Burn in period


Why would a copper speaker cable or rca interconnect need a burn in period.?  Are they really directional?

@golferjw FFS Man you've been a member here for 19 years and now you decide to ask this question. Why are Titleist golf balls the best? Why can't I hit the ball 300 yds anymore?

Titleist golf balls are best because they pay most pros a lot of bread to claim so.  Gravity is the main factor affecting golf balls.  What force of nature is making electric signals sound different because they are not following the arrows on a cable?

If you like asparagus eat it. If your piss smells keep your head out of the toilet. If you can hear a difference then it’s not a myth…To you ! So stay out of the toilet drop the coin and enjoy your music… Simple !

I have no clue. I use good cables and I tweak my system using the cables that sound best but I have not been able to hear directionality. A lot of my cables are marked so I just put them in the direction the manufacturer recommends.

When a cable wire is formed it's drawn through a die. This aligns the metal in a certain direction so this is why manufacturers believe cables are directional.

They should follow the way they were formed/forged.

Hope this helps.
