Real Deal ZU cable WAX, what's your take?

Just purchased a 10'pr, out of the drawstring bag they sounded pretty good, a little lean and cold in the midrange, but the bass is wonderfull. Highs sound about a db down and a little veiled, but it's only been 24hrs. If what i've been reading is true, I can expect alot of improvements over the next couple of weeks. Their being used in my second system: Magnum Dynalab MD208 receiver with completely rebuilt Dahlquist DQ20's (Upgraded Caps & Coils, new wire and rebuilt all the drivers). Looking for a new or used CD player for around $3,000. Does anyone have any comments for the best player to be had for this amount of money, would you buy new or used and why?

Hi everyone. I just got a set of 10' Zu Wax speaker cable and Zu Wax jumpers. Has anyone experienced any harshness in the treble when they first got the Zu Wax speaker cables? If so how much break in was required for it to go away? Would it be ok to use an Isotek system enhancer CD to break in the Zu Wax speaker cables?

So far for about an hour or so I've been listening music @ a moderate volume level with my Kef Q90s with the Zu Wax cables and have been getting listening fatigue. My amp is a rebuilt Threshold 400A. Source: Oppo BDP-83 as a transport to a McCormack DAC-1. My preamp is a McCormack TLC-1 Deluxe.

Thanks and advise when you can.
