Wow, so that particular Cooker is from December 2000? That's even older than ours, which is from 2003. Again, one of my biggest regrets is that the Cooker was not yet invented, when I started out in cable madness in the late-80s and early-90s. On occasion, some audiophile will send me a wire/cable from as far back as the 60s. But as far as high-end audio cables, we do receive a few from the early-90s. It turns out that, without the Cooker, we were only getting maybe 25% of what each cable was capable of. IOW, those cables weren't as bad, inaccurate, or colored as we previously had thought or assumed.

Anyway, our Cooker has been in pretty much constant use, throughout its 13-year lifetime. From throwaway patchcords to car-priced models, this Cooker has treated hundreds of thousands of dollars of products and bulk wire. Now we are on to Ethernet cables, such as the AudioQuest Forest RJ/E, above.

I'm not in the business of taking away anyone's pleasure. However, even if one is happy with his untreated cables, he'd be multiple times happier, if he'd Cook his wares.
