How long for an HDMI cable to break in.

I've been using an Audioquest Blueberry for a little while and just got the Vodka 48 8k/10k to compare. I'm not hearing initially much of a difference and certainly not $600 worth. Anybody else compare the two? Direction is correct. When I put the Vodka in I realized the Blueberry was in wrong!

Are you sure??? If you use it non stop 8 hours a day it will take 625 days - almost 2 years......

Did it improve the video or are you only using it for audio?

Nothing takes 4000+ hours to break in — that’s just silly.  I’d give it at least 100 hours of playing time to start to make any initial judgements and another 100 after that to make more firm conclusions. How long is each cable BTW?
