If break-in and burn-in are two different things, as Robert at RSAD suggests, then break-in is system specific, and therefore can be completed optimally only in the end user's own system; burn-in, by contrast, is not system specific, and is in fact beyond the capabilities of most consumers (except for maybe someone really high powered like Albert Porter, who may purchase his own "burner"). Burn-in would therefore have to be completed at the cable factory for almost all audiophiles, even the pretty hardcore ones.
Some contend that burn-in and/or break-in are psychoacoustic phenomena, not true electromagnetic events. Dakiom makes this contention with respect to their own feedback stabilizers, and the designer of that product holds a PhD in "electronics" (or something like that). However, I DID notice an apparent break-in process, at least with the second generation feedback stabilizers. So my own belief is closer to that of Robert at RSAD, assuming I understood his intended explanation correctly.
