Do Cables Wear Out?


A fellow Hi - Fi friend was explaining particle breakdown in cables after years of use and loud rock use will bring demise sooner. Anyone have knowledge of this?

Pabelson, I doubt if he feels anything, after reading this thread he is surely numb. As an observation, with the moniker spl, and considering his concern about wearing out his cables after "years of hard rock" he is either unmarried, or happily married. Rock on.
Ive been enjoying the serious and the nonsensical replies. I really enjoyed the Rent a Cable idea, oh and yes I do have a family and am far from numb Mitch as I have grown up around the Stereophile people here in Santa Fe so needless to say I have heard it all. The question has brought much entertainment and some intresting comments. Thanks.
