HiDiamond cables burn-in


Hello,

I've got a question to anyone with experience in HiDiamond cables burn-in process after buying new.
2 Weeks ago I bought a matching interconnect and speaker cable set for my system which has been playing for 2 weeks now, about 8 hours a day.
Both are the HiDiamond Power Carbons.
I've owned a lot of highly regarded cable brands, and to me the HiDiamonds really are a surprise.
Some sound aspects I've not yet experienced before with any cable and they certainly enhance listening pleasure.
But I also find the cables still to be lacking in something that is hard to describe, I want to say openness, but this would not be accurate, sometimes I think they are a little rolled of, but on this point also a lot of recordings show the opposite.
I think maybe it is a little lacking in showing the "etches" of details, sometimes resulting in a smaller degree of material or colour of intruments etc. to shine through,
maybe even sounding slightly muffled at times.
Part of this effect also in my opinion is a strength of these cables, because while they sound very detailed, transparent and defined, they really never sound harsh or forced, it sounds as if this is partly due to the effect I am describing.
But before I've written myself an entire chronicle, my question is, can I still expect the cables to open up and reveal more colors of the recoring or will this be it?
Would like some opinions because I do think they are worth the wait, but would hate to be waiting for something that will not take place.

Thanks in advance for any feedback.

Hi Tony,

OKay, thank you.
I am a little reassured now and will give them at least a few more weeks.
Hi Barto,
As the North American distributor for HiDiamond Cables I thought I would give you a little insight on the exact model of cables you purchased on the used market.
The production run on the older Power Carbon series finished 4 years ago and was replaced with a complete new technology called 4VRC. The new 4VRC technology is much more open sounding because of the long process taken to purify the core cable. All current production 4VRC HiDiamond cables are better in every aspect than the previous Power Carbon Series. Although the older Power Carbon Series was very good for what you paid, unfortunately it is not a TRUE representation of HiDiamonds current sound or technology.
HiDiamond has been utilizing 4VRC technology for approximately 4 years and has no intention in changing to any other technology.
Cheers and I hope this helps.
I actually bought this cable for about a third of the new price mentioned.
Concerning your reaction, being in the business myself I understand where you are coming from.
But they way I should take your reply is not very sure te me, I could understand that you want to defend the HiDiamond cables on this highly regarded forum plus would like new customers to buy the newer models instead of older used ones. (en thus earning money).
But maybe you are just being honest and giving me a heads up.
Are you in any way saying that compared to most other cables that sound very open the "older" HiDiamonds are not up to the task?
I think the distributor is trying to tell potential customers that your criticisms of your cables have been addressed in their newer line. Whether or not the newer ones are better can only be determined by audition.
