RE: Glad I Could Help...nt

I've noticed an interesting thing that started emerging after a few days since I've swapped power cables: obviously the Nordost cable imparts a completely different sonic signature to the power amp, which now sounds less liquid, more dynamic and clinically analytical. However, after several hours in use (close to 12 hours or so), this character now became much more pronounced.

Is it possible that the power amp is getting gradually 're-calibrated' when I replace its power cable? I know this sounds far fetched, but the change in sonic signature is very pronounced, however it took some time for it to develop to the current degree.

Also, with Shunyata power cable in, I seem to remember that it took some time before it modified the sonic character from strong, dynamic to mellow, liquid and more tame.

I wouldn't call this odd phenomenon burn-in, because both cables have been already thoroughly burnt in.

Weird stuff, eh?
