Moving cables around killed dynamics for days anyone else experience this?


I've been experimenting with different cables between components. Nothing sounds right since trying to improve sound with new mix of cables. There is no bass and boring, highs are okay but life is gone from system. So I flipped everything back the way it was still sound horrible. Ran everything 24/7 for a couple days still no go. Let it run a couple more days dynamics are back and bass is full big and has tone again and enjoyable to listen to. Can someone tell me why this happens. I've also moved just speaker cables around without unhooking them and seen this happen, I don't get it.

What about phono cables?  The very act of playing vinyl physically moves the phono interconnect which according to some of you should rob the music of dynamics.

But then again there is that story about Frank Sinatra.  The Man would always use a Telefunken U47 microphone which he would bring to a recording session.  He'd give it to his recording engineer who would set it up and they would run a few test.  It would look like this.  Nelson Riddle would be instructed to rehearse the band.  Then Frank would leave the studio, jump in his Ferrari and drive over the Ava Gardner's (or some other woman's) place and not come back to the studio for 2 to 3 days.  He'd come back into the studio with a big smile on his face ready to record and he'd only have one question:  "Has the cable settled in yet?"
