Does Power Cord Require Burn-In To Sound Good?


I recently bought a new power cord but there isn’t much difference in sound quality between this new cord and the previous Wireworld Elektra 7 which it replaces. The cords are used on the DAC.

Any ideas if the cord needs to burn in to open up and sound better? It currently has about 5 hours on it and I think I prefer the sound quality of the previous cord which costs 10 times cheaper.

Any thoughts appreciated.

I acquired a SR Power Conditioner on the used market.  Considering what I paid for it, I was greatly underwhelmed with any if at all improvement over the one it replaced.  I figured, "Live and Learn" and worked hard not to fret over the wasted money.  About 7 - 10 days later the sound improvement was bizarrely much better.  I mean, it was like I had a different system!  This, I never would have believed until I experienced it first hand.
