Beware of the cable claiming long burn in period.


Almost all the audio equipment including speaker need burn in time.

But I had bad experience with one digital cable recently.

Some people blew the horn on it and claimed burn in time more than 100 hours.

Out of box it had lot of details but etched.

After 8 weeks (around 200 hours) it got little bit better but its overall performance is not better than other digital cable that I have had.

Now it is too late to return it.

Beware of any cable claiming more than 50 hours of burn in time.

The chance is high that you will waste your time and money.

Does anyone here have thoughts on cable cookers to expedite the process of burn in?

Different cables bring different qualities and our subjective interpretations are varied as are the systems and environment the cables are placed.  Cables like any gear may be of benefit or not.  This does not mean any one of us is right or wrong, the cable design is either a good fit or not.  

Like finding a mate, some cables may be more popular but that one-off may be the best fit of all.

I found positive results with ZL Technology and am approaching a replacement loom.  They are based out of Korea and designed by Kang Su Park of Allnic Audio.  

I was loaned one power cable and grew from there.
