Mechanical burn in is the key. I find there are lots of things that work better with a bit of percussive maintenance. As far as cables, you need to exercise them a bit. Swing them around, crack them like a whip. Makes all the molecules line up properly.

I recently had someone over to demo a pair of speakers I have for sale. He decided not to buy because the speakers only had 50 hours on them, and my amp only had about 10 hours. He claimed that there was not enough "burn in" time on them. I'm thinking maybe this was just his excuse because he didn't like the speakers, but I read alot about "burn in" in the EMO lounge. Does a class d amp really have a burn in time? What exactly is "burning in" I understand speaker burn in to some extent because you have moving drivers that loosen up over time. I do not understand "burn in" with amps, wire, power cables..... What is "burning in" on these products? Was just wondering if you could edit your post title and call it "Speaker "BURN IN" Fact of Fiction." There are many here that use the "Newest Threads" section to find new threads. I hardly ever look in particular forums. When I saw "burn in" I thought you were referring to TV's, not speakers. No biggie, but if you get a second it would help others I'm sure. Thanks --- Bonzo

Life's a pitch.. and then you buy!
That's all I have to say regarding those buying into the whole burn-in concept for cables. Purely IMHO... Your chariness may vary...
