How long for an HDMI cable to break in.

@kevemaher 

I re-watched that video.  It confirms what I wrote:

Complete a circuit, and there will be a slow electron drift on average from negative to positive.  The electrons flow in the circuit.

Now would you like me to correct your assertions that:

Electron motion and electromagnetic forces and energy in circuits are determined solely by the electromagnetic fields generated by a difference in potential

My amplifier shorted out and several photons shot out

My Krell just let the smoke out ...

I’m terrified to jump into this lively discussion but I have a 1 meter hdmi going from my transport to my dac for I2S.  How would I know if the length of the cable was an issue?  Sound degradation?   It sounds great but I’ve seen a couple of times now that a 1 meter HDMI for i2s can cause issues but nobody says what this issues could be.
