Interesting how so many cable skeptics waste their time, aging brain cells, precious ATP and electrons repeating themselves on threads about cables. I am sure your family would prefer your attention.
OP, as suggested, just get an adapter and plug into your fan or refrigerator for about 12 days.
And yet no one does more "burn in" than the wags on this forum who endlessly post rebuttals and fulminations about the follies of burn-in. I fear their "dynamics" will suffer irreparably if they cannot get their weekly burn-in.
If you want to break it in, why not just play music. Seems to take awhile even if I am just plugging and unplugging interconnects, cords, speaker cables it takes awhile for everything to get back to the same sound but it's not that dramatic.
I used the adapter to burn in my last power cord on the instant pot. It worked like a charm. I swear the stew was just insane with layers of flavor and amazing separation between the carrots, potatoes and the meat. The meat was dead center and was as organic as could be.
Jokes aside, any of you ever heard your system plugged into a brand new Furutech GTX-D NCF outlet? And then listen to it 2 days later? Try it and then say break in is fallacy. I had a “pleasure” breaking in two of these at different times and it was exactly the same routine the second time. Rollercoaster for one month straight.
Use the new power cord with the adapter on your refrigerator. Keep a thermometer inside and when the temperature drops 20 degrees inside it’s totally burnt in. Believe me I tried it and it works.
Hello nasaman. Get the right adapter and use a hair dryer for a day or until it starts to melt. Half a day is probably enough. The ones I have sounder better right off the bat, so I just used 'em. and was happy they got better over time. Happy Listening!
I highly recommend getting an adapter and using a high end foot massager. The Shiatsa mode is by far the most effective. It "exercises" the PC through the critical low frequencies.
But, what about the highs?
Got a solution there, too:
Find a smoke detector that runs off of AC line voltage. Plug it in, then remove the backup battery. It will emit a high frquency tone, we commonly refer to as a "beep" non-stop until you determine that you’ve had about all the burn in time you can handle. Look for an upcoming review in the audiophile publications.
But, seriously, I have never tried "burn in" devices and have no idea if they make any difference. Based on my past history of trying things that "pegged the needle on my BS meter" I wouldn't be surprised if they make an audible difference.
