Does a brand new electrical circuit for audio gear benefit from burn in/break in time?


I mean, the consensus seems to be that all other electrical components of audio gear does, right? So seeing as all that brand new Romex is basically another electrical component in the system?

I just moved my “A” system to a new room and had two new 20A dedicated lines installed . All the goodies …. New Armoured electrical cabling from the panel, new top model FURUTECH electrical outlet plugs, ..and with already run-in CARDAS CLEAR power cables ….in an established $40K audio system.

my experience: after running it for a month, I don’t see any noticeable difference in the electrical system from new even with a “run-in” time. It’s not the same as a run-in on analogue cables. ( at least for me ). No brightness to start, no brightness now.,, no nuthin’ better or no worse from new.

With the mutha size power supplies in my gear, I follow OEM mfg recommendations to NOT use a power conditioner. Installing another Intermediary “filter” in the linkage MAY have a bespoke effect , depending on the PC unit and your bespoke system. ( I’m not suggesting it’s gonna be either good or bad ,,.)

FWIW

Without question it does get better give it a week ,just like speaker cables 

and use good gold copper outlets the garbage that are on your wall is $3 

 buy good outlets and always copper,never aluminum wire !
