I have a question about the duration and method of burning in speaker cables. I was on the Zu Audio website and saw their new Mission line of speaker cables. I'm very interested in them. I read that they require 200-400 hours of break/burn-in. My dad gave me an old receiver that I really don't care about along with some cheap speakers awhile ago. I was going to connect the receiver to the speakers with the Mission speaker cables and let the receiver play music from misc radio stations 24/7 for 10-17 days straight at a low volume so I don't disturb my family. This way I'll know the Mission speaker cables are broken in when I fully audition them and I can make a timely decision on them and if necessary return them within their 60 day time frame.
Would this properly break-in the speaker cables? Does the volume need to be turned up to a certain level to ensure the speaker wire is getting enough current passed through it so that it is being broken in? I'm hoping I can leave it at a low volume. I read some where some time ago certain cable manufacturer breaks-in cables via their burn in devices they do 8 hours on and then 8 hours off for a couple of days. I was wondering if I should do the same.
Thanks in advance everyone.
