And you think this one will? My (informed) opinion is that break-in for cables is non-existent. Electronics do "break-in", but in the opposite way most audiophiles seem to believe - they degrade gradually, and then tend to break (cease functioning!) suddenly. Speaker cones do break-in, at least in the sense that their characteristics change to some extent over time, particularly when brand new. How significant that is, or why it should constitute any improvement in sound, is unclear. This is one of those cases where, to explain a fact (that many people believe in this and think they hear it in uncontrolled tests) there is an extremely implausible and complicated explanation available (esoteric and unknown physics), and a very plausible and simple one which is known to be true in many similar situations (psychology). Take your choice. -- opaqueice ------------------------------------------------------------------------ opaqueice's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4234 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=33615 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
