The molecular level explanation of "cable burn-in"

I guess, since you are a member of the "good enough" crowd.

Instead of arguing without end about what most cannot verify nor understand completely anyway i proposed in my post above a simple experiment...😊

Nobody payed attention...😊

Most people prefer to buy something as a new cable for example especially a costlier one as programmed consumers they prefer purchase than making experiments. I know that...

 

Now this is my post above :

 

«Simple evidence for that :

put a piece of shungite on the cable connector ends: compression of the signals ...

put a quartz piece on the ends of the same cables connector : decompression of the signals ...

now combine them and hear the result : a balance with improvement in many case... It depend of the cable quality and design ...

No cables designer working with " basic established science/engineering principles in cable/wire electronics" will do that...

By the way i designed my own devices as a shield against EMI and minerals filters : "golden plate" ( shungite+a copper external face + quartz at some point for a better acoustic balance)

I dont buy tweaks...😁 I prefer homemade...»

 

 

 

Now think a second about what i said about shungite and quartz...

Think...

And read that :

 

"Quartz is an excellent electric insulating material and presents the following electrical properties: electrical resistivity (350°): 7×107 ohm x cm. dielectric constant (20°C – 1MHz): 3,76."

 

"Despite the poorly ordered structure, shungite has a relatively high electrical conductivity [50,51]. The resistivity of shungite-1 is about 1 Ω cm, whereas the resistivity of shungite-3 is about 10 Ω cm [50]."

 

«Another carbonaceous filler used in the present work was shungite. Shungite is a mineral that has recently increased in popularity. Shungite is a microheterogeneous natural mineral complex containing non-crystalline carbon, silicates, a small quantity of metal oxides, and organic additives [31,32]. Originally, shungite was described thanks to the resources obtained near the village of Shunga (Russia). Shungite rocks are classified into five types depending on the carbon content. Some deposits consist of almost pure carbon (up to 98% by weight, so-called type I). The most popular variant of shungite is type III (with a carbon content of 20–35 wt.%) [33,34]. Shungite may differ in structure and properties, depending on the place of origin. Shungite is a hard mineral with a compact structure and black color. Its density, depending on the variety, ranges between 2.04 and 2.25 g/cm³. Due to the fact that shungite contains nanotubes and fullerenes in its structure, this mineral is highly porous. Shungite also exhibits conductive properties and considerable mechanical strength [35,36,37]. Its modulus of elasticity is the highest among all of the carbon materials, including graphite. Taking into account the reactivity of shungite, it can be observed that it is more reactive than coke and, at the same time, more resistant to the oxidation process than graphite»

I think once a cable is burnt IN (best to measure that time), then you can only use it for 2x the burn in time before it is so altered that it is burnt OUT (you know those atoms and molecules get so dizzy from changing around that they start twisting the sound bites). But the shroom stash that made me hear the difference between un burnt, burnt IN and burnt OUT cable is now also gone. Darn. Shopping Amazon for pixel dust now. Do you SMOKE pixel dust or make cookies with it?

"....there are no measurement data or mathematical formulas to be found to back up this amazing scientific discovery...."

Therefore, at least according to the way I understand science, there was no scientific discovery, even of the mundane kind.

God bless credulous individuals: they keep capitalism humming along.

My speaker cables have achieved greater transparency and neutrality in their sound reproduction abilities due to the introduction of concentrated and directed external sound focused to aid in the cable's molecular strand orientation. You can achieve this at home with any system by shouting at your cables, that's right, shouting at your cables! It's best to perform this exercise with no music playing since you do not want any reproduced musical signal to interfere with the intended orientation you are trying to achieve. Very simply, stand over each run of cable and while leaning over, cup your hands and shout. It doesn't matter what you shout. It can be something like, "Get in line you stupid cable, YOU SOUND LIKE GARBAGE, you need to get your particles in line so you sound better." Shout, loudly, 3 to 4 times for the left channel and 3 to 4 times for the right channel. Preferably leave the door to your home or apartment open so you don't induce any acoustic feedback or echo which could unduly affect the molecular orientation you are trying to achieve. Now that you've completed this no-cost upgrade to your speaker cables, put on your favorite reference music, sit back and listen critically and don't tell me you can't hear an improvement in transparency and neutrality, presence, and overall inching closer to the absolute sound of real music reproduced in your home. If not, repeat the exercise described above until you can hear improvement. Trust me, be patient, it will come.
