Conditioning/Burn-In Method

Now, to business.

I'm in the process of working in a set of Signal Cable Silver Resolution XLR interconnects between my DAC, Preamp and Amplifier. So far, I probably have only 20 hours or so of play, and if memory serves, Frank recommends 60 hours or more. Given the difference in amplitude from DAC to Preamp, and from Preamp to Amplifier, do you guys think it might be worth swapping them out (rotating them) to help balance and perhaps accelerate the process?

Thanks in advance!

Well something is happening during run in of some new cables at least this is my own listening perception and how can anyone measure perception. . ? ridiculous though deniers will go out of thier minds demanding measured scientific evidence as the only proof acceptable to them , like most I have my own listening biases and perception which to judge ,....Currently I’m running in a pair of TEO Audios GC 2 interconnects using a DVD player . Manufacturers suggested run in time is about 150 hours
