digital and interconnect cables burn in

Talk about resurrecting old threads; 24 years! 

I don't understand why people don't want to hear the changes the cables impart on the sound as it goes through this settling period, I think it makes the brain believe that the cable sounds even better by comparison to the inferior sound one can get as it breaks in, and it is good for ear training- it is a fun part of being an audiophile!

If one doesn't like to listen to music as components burn in, and wishes to burn in as quickly as possible, on Qobuz there are some burn in albums available: search Bunker Analog. There is a 48 min. burn in track on one of their albums, where maybe 100 hours with this burn in track accomplishes the same as 200 hours of random music? 

@mclinnguy -

       Even 24 years later: some folks are still out there, interested in burning in their cables.     

                                 Of course: some, less patient than others.

       The Ayre CD has Pink, White and Brown Noise tracks, that when set to play repeatedly, should provide a (somewhat) faster burn than random music, containing more full frequency spectrums.

        The full frequency sweeps on the disc, can't hurt either.

         I agree: critical listening, when changes are made to one's system, is educational and, "good training".

         Still: many just want to get on with their better sound, quickly as possible.

          I suppose: why there's a market for cable burn devices*

                                                 Happy listening!                  

you can do all types of burning-in rituals or you can simply connect it where it supposed to be and listen music.
