Wirewold Eclipse 8 - Burn in

No time is required to burn in anything. Everything sounds better after some time than when new. How much time? Nobody knows. How much better? Listen and hear for your self. 

Sorry, but that is the truth. If they are any good they will sound better right from the beginning, improve a great deal the first few hours, improve a little more the next tens of hours, until eventually stabilizing at some level or other.  

So if you like what you hear right away, great. It will only get better. More refined, more smooth natural detail, more dynamic and extended. Do this enough you will maybe come to understand it does not matter at all what it is, wire, amp, speakers, minor differences here and there but basically pretty much all the same.  

If you don't like what you hear, don't kid yourself, your pumpkin ain't gonna transform into a royal carriage.

HI millercarbon,

Thanks for the update :-D.

Anyone that uses this cables could let me know after how much time their cables start to settle in?

Thx

My cables, regardless of brand, always settle in at exactly 72.5 hours.

Yes but one of these is 1m the other .5m also these are XLR, therefore logically the only way to answer this specific question is to know the altitude and humidity of the room. Also it will be necessary to know the precise voltage run. A meter connected in series will do but it must read average not peak voltage! The trickiest part is to figure out how to read the meter, this absolutely must be done blind! If you see the meter this will bias your expectations and you may unconsciously tilt your head thus introducing a parallax angle that will completely ruin all accuracy and you will be forced to start all over again with new cables and blindfolds.  

Either that or you could play music and listen, and when one day it sounds like the day before then shazzam! Settled in!

Just play music and listen? Are you crazy, MC?  Just last week I was told I had to take some fancy course to "learn" how to listen to music.
