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.

You need to put 200-400+ hours on these cables.
Be patient, (I know its hard).

Well, I own a AudioDharma Cable cooker. Getting these cables to cooperate to shape and hook them into the cooker was quite a task. I ended up making 10 gauge jumpers.
It probably took several hundred hours even after cable cooking them before they sounded there best.
Anyway, be patient, these are some of the best sounding speaker cables out there.
(If you can tolerate the stiffness.)
