Do ixos cables need burn in time?


I just bought Ixos 6003 gamma speaker wire. I am not completely satisfied with certain aspects of the sound, specifically the highs. Will they get better with time? I have been using them for about a week? I was thinking of getting new wire. Maybe I should give it some more burn-in time.

Have been using the IXOS GAMMA 6003 speaker cable for the last 6 months and I have a few observations:
1. The sound will round out over a month or so.
2. The sound improvement is equipment dependent. My main music system is composed of: ADCOM AMP/PREAMP/TUNER circa 1990; SONY 555 SACD Player; AR-302 speakers; and IXOS Silver Series audio cables and the sound is very layered, warm and musical. My AV system is a DENON 2802 Receiver; SONY 560 DVD Player; SONY ES-XA1 CD PLAYER; AR-302 speakers; IXOS Silver series audio and IXOS GAMMA 6003 speaker cable. DVD movie & music sound is fairly good, but CD music sound is fairly uninvolving. I know that the CD player may be at fault or I have become accustomed to separates, but the cables are a wash in this system.

Hope this helps.
