... what is Settling Time in cables and interconnects...


Hello to all...

Was reading on a cable/interconnect manufacturers' site that they recommend min 350 preferrably 450 hrs Burn-In time, and 2 to preferably 24 hrs Settling Time (after plugged and unplugged).

Have never heard the term Settling Time: what is it, how is it done, what effect would it have if done or not done, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY - would like to hear from someone who has actually done this and your impressions...

THANKS!

Why don't manufactures break in stuff? MONEY. To fiddle around breaking in stuff they would first need to have the equipment to do it, then the statf just for that. If you want to pay an additional $250 per.. Some places that sell outlets and such WILL break them in/burn them in for a fee. Usually $10 to $25.Some companies break in electronics. But THAT is done to avoid returns. Breaking it themselves before YOU get it ... is CHEAPER.(it really is all about the money)
It’s actually because they don’t know about it. They don’t even break in their stuff for the big shows. Which isn’t really too swift. But hey! C’est la vie, as they say in Des Moines.
