Virtual Dynamics Revelation-2 speaker cables


Just wondering if anyone know how long the break in time for the VD Revelation-2 speaker cables since I just plugged them in the system 2 days ago and how much improvement should I expect? As they are new...they sound abit conjested and not very dynamic/detail. I also have the Revelation-2 XLR interconnects but they are broken in as demo cables.
Thanks in advance.

Ok guys thanks for the responses. I was started wondering about my listening ability.....lol
I also received my Revelation Version 2 speaker cables 2 days ago. What an improvement over the Acoustic Zen hologram. The system sounds better than ever. There is a hint of brightness in the top octaves which I suppose will dissapear after the break-in period.

Flashunlock how does yours sound by now?

Did the cables got significantly better by the time you are using them? Which one of their attributes you think improved more?

Thanks again.
Anybody else that can comment on the sonic changes after the burn-in process in the Revelation 2 cables?

Thanks!

Flashunlock thanks for your answer!

Im now at about 40 hours of break in and the sound has already changed a lot. Its like you described it. One day it sounds good and the other day bad. The highs have softened a lot and the resolution is increasing all the time. The best thing that these cables brought to my system is much more energy than my previous cables. The sound is so much more realistic. Also the soundstage is great so far with all the organs having their dicrete position on it. I cant imagine how can anything become and better.

As far as concerning the CDSA it is really an amazing player. It is the only player I have heard that it doesnt appear to have all the digital nasties of other player like brittle and annoying highs etc.
It is definetely a must listen if you are planning on moving on that category. It is the first time that I am really so excited about a digital source.

What is going on with these cables is really weird.I'm about at 50 hours in the break in process.
Everything was going great, the cables kept improving day by day. The last two days there was something really wrong with the mid-upper frequencies to the point I thought something was wrong with the connections. I was really worried.
Today they sound great again.

Can someone explain why this is happening. How can a cable in the break in period one day sound bad and the other absolutely great?

Please help Im confused.
