A question about cable break-in

Dave, the answer to that question is in the archives. Just do a search on "break" in the Cable section. Read everything that comes up and you will know almost as much as anyone else.

Go to Cardas website, they have a method for breaking in cables. Have tried it with a few brands and it does work.

Dave, even better advice would be to consult any basic electrical engineering textbook. That will tell you everything you need to know about cable break-in.

There are alot of theories as to why cables break-in, but very little hard fact. The only thing that I know is that I can hear the difference, and many people can. Some consider this to be psychological. If this is true, I'd like to learn how to apply it to the rest of my system, so I don't have to spend any more money. Others feel that it is a real phenomenon, that happens during the beginning of use. You will have to decide for yourself.

Bomarc could not hear the difference since his hearing aids have not fully burned in yet!
