Hoped to ask people's views and about experimental results anywhere, on these old audiophile theories:
- amps need a "break in" period
- speakers need to "break in"
- you need big thick cables
Certainly it would be possible to run those SINAD graphs every 100 hours on an amp and look for changes. Similarly speakers could be tested for response changes over time with the spinorama. Also SINAD could be used to see any changes resulting from different interconnect and speaker cables.
