The issue of cable burn-in and how many hours s required has been discussed here repeatedly. There is absolutely no way to know for sure what any amount of time may change for a cable unless you can do a direct comparison to another same exact cable that has not yet been used. And then many people would argue that you have "disturbed" the cable in the system such that such a comparison is then invalid.
I have done many rapid power cord swaps back and forth between different models (both with many hours on them) and the sonic signature of each is immediately apparent. And thus the point raised in the last sentence of the previous paragraph does not stand for me.
