Reliable burn-in service for cables and outlets

Hello Audiogoners' I am looking for a reliable source to provide burn-in service for AC outlets and various cables. based on your experience, is there someone you can recommend. On a side note, please share your experience and let me know if burning in process and cryogenics really has a positive effect on sound. Thanks for your kind responses.

It must be true what they say. A lot of folks on those islands in the Pacific are superstitious. So superstitious in fact they believe someone taking their photo is stealing their soul.

To answer the OP, years ago there were a few independent services offering burn-in. I don’t think they exist anymore.
Many dealers now have burn-in devices, I’d check with some of them.
Or you could buy one.

I worked extensively with Gene at Take Five Audio when building a tonearm wiring harness from scratch. He is a delight to work with. Patient, honest, and highly competent. Highly recommended!

Not used for cryo service but did have Take Five build me a special DIN to RCA I could use to burn in my phono cable. Quick, reliable service, and excellent build quality. So, FWIW, I would recommend them for individual cable work anytime.
