Interconnects Roller Coaster Ride

Maybe that was an off day that you yourself were not feeling in the pink. We don't every day feel the same.

Kisawyer, I have never heard a wire or a component, that does go through some breakin. I presently have the High Fidelity CT-1Es cables that are into their second month and still showing improvements on occasion. These cables don't show the roll-a-coaster pattern you describe, but I have often heard it with other things. Mostly, these seem to be twenty-four hours phenomena as the day after sounding great, they sound awful. In addition I find that cables just don't like to be moved at all. This makes comparing cables very time consuming and difficult. Normally, I do a/b/a comparisons with the last b versus a compromising both cables equally, Of course a may be fully broken in.

While your feeling better one day or the electricity being better one day are conceivable, I don't find those hypotheses very credible as the comparison usually hold on later days when I redo the comparison.

I just wanted to weigh in as I think this is pretty characteristic of cables.

Tbg,

I don't understand what you are talking about. You start off by saying you've never heard a wire or a component that goes through break in, but you go on to say that cables don't like to me moved. Thats a break in issue.

Something tell me I just may not be reading your post correctly. Can you clarify?

I'm betting a storm moved in on the day the sound got worse. Low pressure systems are bad news.

Kisawyer air base?
