RE: Cable re-break in?

If we have not used a proper cable burn-in device (good examples include the audiodharma Cable Cooker, Hagerman Fry products, and Nordost VIDAR), then our cable, no matter how many years of regular use it has seen, is NOT burned-in.

I know several audiophiles, who like to re-Cook their cables. Some of them put these previously-treated cables on the full 4- to 6-day treatment. When I re-Cook cables, I find that an overnight charge is all that is needed.

I have had many of my own (previously-Cooked) cables re-terminated. The re-terminated cables, on account of using new materials, get the full 4-day treatment.
