Hey guys I've been quiet as of late been back in school so to speak so I've been studying my A$$ off, three more weeks and 4 tests and I'm qualified to be an operator in my city's Subway system..80-100k
I've been in the bus system for the last 12 yrs so it was time for a change, there is a 51% failure rate in this course..
I treated myself to these cables as I'm doing very well in training.anyway back to my point..
Since acquiring my McCormack pre and amp I've been looking at different interconnects to buy/ try I bought these and was wondering about burn in, do I have to have sound playing for the cables to get their required burn in time or can it just be very low volume?

    Low volume with music playing is fine.

    Did you get these cables recently in the mail from someone here? Do you the Porsche later too?

    A so called science type proudly says... "I do realize that I would fool myself all the time, about listening conclusions and many other observations, if I did listen before buying. That’s why I don’t, I bought all of my current gear based on technical parameters alone, such as specs and measurements."

    CJ I'm not sure I understand your question..
    No I was not lucky enough to have someone ship me cables by mistake, I bought these on the up and up.
    While it's not a Porsche I do have pics..
