It's been some time since I've installed three Shunyata Venom 3 power cables in my system. These were the latest changes in my hi fi, but ever since I did that, I keep experiencing certain kind of shifting in the sound representation. Considering that nothing else changed in my configuration, I am forced to entertain two ideas:1. The cables are burning in with usage
2. My mind is playing tricks on me (again!)Hypothesis #2 is super easy to adopt, so let's not go for shooting fish in a barrel right now. Hypothesis #1 is a bit disturbing, because, if true, I'm baffled at how much the sound can keep changing with the power cable burn in. And believe me, the change is not always for the better. Like, last week I kept getting wimpier and wimpier bass. Then, over the weekend, I've noticed that the bass had recovered somehow. Also, the highs kept getting smoother and smoother, but now to the point that they're almost muffled. Are they ever going to return to their previous sheen and sparkle?
I repeat, nothing else seems to be changing, and yet I'm having this roller coaster ride with Shunyata power cables. Anyone experienced anything similar to this?
