Hi. Nice to hear that. I always loved watching the mighty Kenny Everett and his whacky creations as a lad back in the day. Who could ever forget Cupid Stunt?!@Kremmen Off topic but love that avatar!! And the lovely Carla lol!
First, I like these cables. Reasonable cost, the connectors fit most gear well (not too tight or loose), and the cables are flexible. I use them with an audio analyzer and I get good connections, the analyzer is orders of magnitude more sensitive than my hearing as far as that goes.
No, burn-in is not BS, it destroys the sound stage completely, don't do it!This is discussed here over and over again: burn- in-BS makes no difference! They will sound the same after 5 minutes or 5 months.
After many exhaustive hours of listening tests, I have determined that when a cable is burned-in, it is actually ruined. No cable should be used for more than a few hours, as the stresses on the insulation and the agitation of the copper molecules cause permanent changes to the structure of the cable - these changes are invariably for the worse, and fresh unused cables can be proven by listening tests to be superior in all respects.
The characteristics of the insulation change very subtly as the cable is stressed by signal voltages, and this has an as yet unexplained effect on the stereo imaging, and in particular causes veiling of the high frequencies and a loss of presence in the upper midrange. In extreme cases, the authority of the bass also suffers, with the lower registers lacking speed and power.
All the above defects are rectified by substitution of a new set of cables - the brilliance is restored and the finer details are brought back into startling realism. Bass speed is improved tenfold by a brand new unused mains cable, and new interconnects have a profound effect on the upper frequencies where detail is paramount.
I could say all these things (I just didand I would be lying through my teeth.

In my case, I turn a blind eye.100% bad faith indeed. after seeing this they won't see another dime from me, complete nonsense and it only harms their reputation imo. the directional thing really pisses me off too - "oh if you don't like them turn them around!" am I 7?
It's a scam to get you to lose motivation to return the cables or to put you past the return window.
It's always best to feel good!Tell me how to feel
The directional thing about this cable is real, have a look at its connections.100% bad faith indeed. after seeing this they won't see another dime from me, complete nonsense and it only harms their reputation imo. the directional thing really pisses me off too - "oh if you don't like them turn them around!" am I 7?
Good idea. Especially r/audiophile, which is a real swamp of the usual fairytale nonsense.going to stop taking advice from (the vast majority of) redditors..
It might have prevented from buying.@w277 I did not. if I show you my horse-teeth will you lead me to the water? (not promising to drink tho)
