12 Volt Cable Burn In?


I just made a pair of CAT 5 speaker cables following the Venhaus recommendations. A gentleman who worked at the cable vendor suggested that a speedy break in could be accomplished by connecting one cable end to a light bulb receptacle and the other to an electrical outlet and illuminating a 12 volt bulb for 24 hours. Any thoughts?

The breaking suggestion may indeed have some merit, but you'll never know unless you try it.
I am going to make up a second set of the cables and make a comparison when my hands recover. I'll report when it is done.
I run each roll of silver hook-up wire on the line side of a 100w light bulb for a day to precondition it....Been doing this for about a decade and it works fine to loosen things up, but don't go for more than a day....
Did the burn in for 24 hours. I have to say it was a success. Far less sizzling sibilance, and the bass seems more focused. I am going to try to get the energyto make a second pair and do an A/B comparison as best I can.
