The "electric parts" are passive, and clearly benefit from the Cable Cooker's multiplex signal, along with the conductors and dielectric materials in/on the cable.
Lummy's experience over many, many years with many different models of MIT cabling attests to the success of the conditioning and the safety of the Cable Cooker's signal. I only wish the powers-that-be at MIT would recognize this fact rather than continue to lump my product in with the bad experience they had with the DuoTech unit, which ceased production 24 years ago.

I was curious and read a review in Positive Feedback, it seems basically the signal is a frequency sweep so it wouldn't seem to do harm unless some how the voltage or something went outside the parameters of the parts.
There was another company who advised not to use a cooker but for the life of me I can't remember who it was, I do remember thinking, why, because the cable was not one that used networks etc.
The Cable Cooker's signal has three main components....the swept square wave, high voltage, and high current, all steady-state.MIT objects to the square wave (as I understood years ago). The Duo-Tech had a nasty-looking square wave (as my tech evaluated at the time), so perhaps that's what they didn't like. I don't recall if they ever indicated any damage to the parts components because of that signal.
Transparent also uses "network boxes", and all of their models do just fine with the Cable Cooker as well. Even the Opus.
My experience has been that those designers/builders who advocate NOT using such a device have either never used one (pretty much the case) or fall into the category of N.D.H....Not Designed Here. So many cable makers think their products are the cat's meow, and can't be improved. Sorry, but that's not the reality. 15 years of experience in building this unit, and all the customers who own those N.D.H. cables proves them wrong.

In my experience as a reviewer and dealer I’ve found this mentality isn’t restricted to cable designers, but nearly all component manufacturers
