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!

@richardbrand ,

I see...

Question: How many photons in a Coulomb? 🤔

Or is it futons? I get those two mixed up..
 

it’s croutons. 1.

I’m beginning to side with @muvluv here. 
I opened my fridge and a light came on. I forgot that I have it plugged into the outlet with a fiber optic cable made out of copper.

volts and light can be used interchangeably

Reminds me of DS Audio's optical cartridges!

In these, an electrically powered light-emitting diode (LED) illuminates a screen attached above the stylus.  The screen normally stops the light from reaching a photo-sensitive receptor. When the stylus moves, the screen unblocks some of the receptor and some of the photons interact with electrons to create a voltage signal.  Oversimplified description, I know.

Another LED sits at the front of the cartridge to show the power is on (and the afficionados how much you spent).

Einstein would be ecstatic!
