Breaking in power cords


Can I break in my new power cord by connecting it to a lamp and then leaving it on fulltime? Various threads indicate hundreds of hours of break in time in the audio system, and I don't want to wait months and months for the benefits. Has anyone tried this method?

Guess what? The hate mail was sent from AOL Mexico:

It takes all kinds...this time a *cholo malparido*.

Ah, that guy doesn't know who I am. If he is from Mexico, I can tell him I went out with one of the Puro Loco Mexican TV program models--no small feat for a "Welfare Spik". Actually, my job position was Sales Manager/Latin America for a very small high tech company ( I had her agree to go out with me before having given my B/card--muy importante--so I *do* have my charm!). Too bad for Sept 11, when I was there and things went down the toilet...she's more mami than Salma Hayek. Problem was that I couldn't sustain her lifestyle on welfare checks...

With psychic power, primal intensity and boogie factor,
Cello, I agree that the *anal* talk should stop. It sounds bad to my ears anyway...men talking about *anal* stuff.

As for power cords, the poorer the quality of the power the more effect they have. If your power is good the gap between power cords narrows--and in some cases a power cord that sounded better because it filtered noise can be found to be limiting in the audio band (and colored, too!). That's how the cryo'ed Absolute Power Cord beat the BMI Whale and Shark in my system.
Cello, the BMI cords tend to boom the bass, exaggerate soundstage and roll the highs. If you were to try a cryo'ed VenHaus Flavor 4 you'd have a very pleasant surprise. The thing is my system is designed to run off 220V/110V isolation transformer/filters and the whole thing changes drastically. There's plenty of information in the archives on this subject.
