Do speaker cables need a burn in period?


I have heard some say that speaker cables do need a 'burn in', and some say that its totally BS.
What say you?

Hey geoffkait,
Since you’re on the Dielectric thingie now, maybe it would help if you knew the Definition if the term?

di·e·lec·tric/ˌdīəˈlektrik/PHYSICSadjectiveadjective: dielectric
1. having the property of transmitting electric force without conduction; insulating.
nounnoun: dielectric; plural noun: dielectrics

1. a medium or substance that transmits electric force without conduction; an insulator.
Capacitors use Dielectric material that blocks DC (Direct Current), and passes Alternating Current (AC), also known as Audio Electrical signals. There IS NO Dielectric material in Copper Speaker Cables, so I really don’t follow your point? But please keep believing all the Bullshit that Cable companies, and Their Advertisers spew to get Suckers to buy there $200/Ft Speaker Cable! “A fool and his money are soon parted”

>>>>>Bobby, you’re pulling my leg, right? Of course copper speaker cables have dielectric material. What planet are you from? Didn’t you read any of the burn in articles I posted? Let me guess, you don’t read explanations because your mind is closed, right?
Or maybe, just maybe, he’s as inept as you are. Oddly, perhaps, the ones with no conflict of interest do not seem to know anything about it. Just an observation.
"This energy-absorption causes the dielectric’s molecules to re-arrange themselves from a random order into a uniform order. When the molecules have been rearranged, the dielectric will absorb less energy & consequently cause less distortion."

Molecular rearrangement of dialectric by way of music signal, hmm...

That’s a hoot. If the molecules of the polymeric dielectric restructured upon playing music through the cables, the breaking of covalent bonds in the dialectric would cause the insulation to fall apart and literally disintegrate.

But we all know that doesn’t happen now, don’t we?

And please don’t tell me that the music also forms new covalent bonds.
I think the nonbelievers are overlooking the circumstantial evidence of the vast numbers of listeners that can tell a difference and the cable manufacturers that spend untold thousands of careful listening hours to perfect their products while listening to burn in.. In a court of law would this prove burn in is not a fallacy but true? Known science would be taken into consideration.
