One, true scientific observation of cable break-in is if you pass too much electrcity through a piece of metal/wire it will burn-up/disintegrate/melt. Put 500v through some bubble gum wrapper....poof.
Any scientific data on cable burn-in?
Someone asked me today if I knew of any scientific papers or evidence regarding cable burn-in. I am not trying to begin a flame type objectivist vs.subjectivist debate here. I have experienced improvement in sound quality on every cable I own after break-in. I just want to answer this fellows question if I can.
