Just curious if any of you are using a device like this?

Or this?

Feelings , nothing more than feelings. 😆 Where’s Barbara when you need her. Or maybe the Offspring version. To the Op, it looks interesting and I applaud you asking. I have not tried any burn in devices. However running numerous brands of mid tier cables in a system that’s decent enough to be revealed, I definitely believe there is a break-in/settle- in time. I’ve run Audioquest, Anti-Cables and Morrow. I couldn’t tell squat ( break-in ) on power cords, although I could tell a difference. Speaker cables seem to be a little more evident. However IC’s I could definitely tell a break-in curve. This was most evident out of the three brands listed with Morrows. I’ve received them totally GREEN, and others with 240 hrs burn time prior to shipping. It found ( based on actual experience) that the Morrow IC’s took 400 hrs to reach some sort of a peak. I don’t agree with people that have an ABSOLUTE mentality that based on their experience others will NEVER have this occurrence. And yeah I’ve read the NASA guys paper “ wire is wire “. We’re here to experiment, be curious and open minded. I don’t see any value in people that shut one down with a curt quiff. But I’m not of superior intelligence either. Another random point , I bought a USB Disruptor and it didn’t do squat for my DAC. My buddy had a huge improvement. So I gave him mine and I don’t post that it’s BS and never works, for him it did. If I offended anyone, PM me and I’ll send you a butt hurt report form. Cheers , Mike B. 

I use it, or something similar, but purely for illustration purposes.

Distortion mice go in, but they don't come out and inhabit your speakers. 😳

I will be closing the doors today and selling off all of the stock. 

Whatever. I know I will never do any business with you for sure. 

I wasnt offended one bit. And my response wasnt directed  only at YOU. All you have to do is take a quick glance at most if not all of the responses. Key thing is if these respondents have actually experimented with such devices. I can tell you definitively many dismiss such things out of hand. 

@audition__audio only asked the question why are you so offended?

Guess reading is fundamental.

Came across a discussion on one of the other forums on this topic, and was wondering if anyone is using this type of device?

Any real benefit?

I think just running cables in on your system would suffice.

If you deny that cables change as they are used then of course such a device is nonsense. If you believe, as I do, that cables change as you use them such a device is not silly and could be useful.

Oh and by the way it isnt the copper that changes it is the dielectric. At least this is the theory.

A true audiophile cant get to the music without equipment. Nothing stupid about wanting to get to a certain point as quickly as possible and until you have tried such a device some would argue you should be excluded from this conversation.

I use a Audiodharma device to burn cables in for my clients and am a believer. But of course what do I know I only use a device often and compare untreated with treated cables on a regular basis.

Not sure I would call them audiophiles but rather consumers. 

A true audiophile is about the music not equipment.

More voodoo science, like the CD demagnitizer!

That is my personal favorite. Proof that some audiophiles will believe anything.

Predictable with people having the belief that they need hundreds of hours to "burn in"......copper.

Frytening.

Funny @dadork you made me chuckle. 

Frightening.

Save your money and just play some music. Some of these things are just toys for the gullible.
