Does Power Cord Require Burn-In To Sound Good?


I recently bought a new power cord but there isn’t much difference in sound quality between this new cord and the previous Wireworld Elektra 7 which it replaces. The cords are used on the DAC.

Any ideas if the cord needs to burn in to open up and sound better? It currently has about 5 hours on it and I think I prefer the sound quality of the previous cord which costs 10 times cheaper.

Any thoughts appreciated.

unless you are a super being, very likely from another planet, and a walking wheatstone bridge who can tell the difference between 0.001 ohm and 0.0011 ohms.

At least you have a working theory, not a very good one but ONE non the less.

If you can’t hear the difference, guess what, you can’t. I can’t talk you into it...That is the true QUESTION of this thread. Can the OP justify 10X for a PC that the SQ is not there OUT OF THE BOX...

Of course, they sound different...No one said better, different...

You need to save your money, you hear no difference.. Less expensive for sure...BUT don’t start spoutin’ YOU CAN’T, with some .000X anything... Crack me up... You can’t others can.

Isn’t it good when someone hears INCOMING, even if you can't... BTW  I don't follow blind people either, ask directions maybe. BUT follow, NO....

Yep, aside from real science and the principals of physics, cable burn in is a thing just like saturation is a thing. Auditory hallucinations can be obtained for the price of a coat hanger.

Thank you very much, I’ll return the insult AND raise you one. You’re a mighty fine person, I hope to get to know you..

I know who you are.... Funny guy.... we would have a great time together...

Cables are broken in not BURNT IN... Maybe that might help...

Let me see, take the 25,000.00 cables out of  tbakin6347 stocking and put in some manners and Maybe a little chunk of coal. :-)

Happy Holiday

With great Respect...

It's taken me years to develop my "Cooling" techniques, not everything works on everybody..:-)

NEVER met a person I didn't like, but sometimes, you got WAIT to make them whole again, someone that hurt.  Sometimes they are broke, by choice some by bad circumstance, still BROKEN non the less.

People forget quick unless it's just malicious, I haven't seen that here, sure it was gone pretty quick. I have seen a nutter or two, me I just like having a little fun without being called "vomitus", YUK, something yukie.. YUK... double yuk....Triple yuk...

Have to keep things in their proper order, ay

The cable cookin' thread, Yea, I complained when it left. I thought "CRAP", but I tried NOT to be TOO big of, "I did it, I own one guy", but I am, and I did.  If you got one you get to spew, got your own opinion, you don't and start telling EVERYBODY they are, you know EVERYTHING.. LOL Uncouth unhinged, uneducated, unfair, unNICE, UnUN-NICE, that is a real bad one...

I always like information with that many differences, entertaining if nothing else... BUT no name callin' and no Yoko Ono.

I'm gonna have a nice opportunity to use one HELP break in a couple of NEW, one end to the other, Tonearms, carts, preamp, SUT, integrate an RtR and SEE if it helps AGAIN.. lot of new goodies...THUS new cables...

Regards to all..
For being Mr YourBUTTholeyness to everyone on this site, still admitting you can’t hear and you have bad manners, what else is new. SHUT UP, your a bad person, you can’t hear. You keep takin’ smack. YUP !!

The archive is here, for the chosen few, your not part of that group.
Your just a person with a big mouth and nothing nice to say.. Just a..... fill in the blank... Everything I was gonna say qualifies as part of a human, but I can always feed the pigs from the fence. I may have to wade a little.

BUT all in all, I can KB war with the best of them... really, no balls required RIGHT?? LOL Gettin’ my dog riled up. She really want’s to hump your leg...

You see I never said I was perfect.. But I ran out of cheeks with you...

Plane and simple... you’re a big ol BUTT, you eat boogers too, neener, neener, neener, booger eatin’ spaz, so there. top that one...
I don’t want to hear how your nose is so close to your mouth, I’ve hear that one (though not bad).

Regards, NO NO REGARDS,, you got some apologizing to do...

Are you color blind, did you mix up the green one with the blue one again, you know the PILL!!

Geezzz, have to go over and over this with you....Pay attention!!
I was wondering if this was gonna happen. I'm saddened to say, I'll be proceeding, with a slightly different approach.

Your name will not be spoken, you will be publicly shunned, you will apologize to all openly and publicly. You and your views and writing will be stricken from the record of the publics mind, they will view it with distain.

You will always be seen for what you are, there will be NO quarter given.

What you produce, is what you will consume.

You will live and be seen by your works.
