Why no “Break in” period?

If people say there’s a break in period for everything from Amps to cartridges to cables to basically everything... why is it with new power conditioners that people say they immediately notice “the floor drop away” etc.  Why no break in on that?

I’m not trying to be snarky - I’m genuinely asking.

I personally don't like the sound of power conditioners. Nor do I like the sound of anything over built.

If one is having a problem with ac they should take a look at their transformers, thick wires, banana plugs (all big plugs or connectors) and component chassis to see why there is signal blockage.

Hi Boxer you said

"The reason I'm asking is capacitor companies (these are people who made there life profession, capacitors), state there is a break in period."

exactly correct!

How many will read this and not understand or have the need to debate on is always mind blowing to me. I don't believe these debate teams are here for audio at all.
