I agree with part of this. Burn-In is not a single phenomenom, but a whole range of effects ranging from obvious and measureable to pseudo-scientific voodo magic. There are many effects that are directly related to burn-in that are measureable and audible (n my experience), speaker suspension, electrolytic capacitors, rubber vibration attenuation grommets in CD players. Even transistors will experience measureable drift with changes in temperature. Cables and power cords however I have yet to experience any observable difference, and to me the explanations start getting into the whole "I heard something, I'm sure of it, let's see if I can find some sort of rational sounding reason for it". Yes dialectric materials can change, stresses in metals can cause minute changes in electrical properties, are any of these effects significant enough to cause an audible difference? In my opinion and experience, nope.
