NO amount of regular playing time amounts to what a burn-in device does




I have audiophile acquaintances who either own, or have access to, devices from audiodharma, Hagerman, and Nordost. I myself have had this audiodharma Cable Cooker since 2003. It's been in pretty much constant use, over those 17 years. It has seen, if the cables were new and at retail price, well over 1.5 million dollars.

People send me quite a few audiophile cables from as far back as the late-80s. Thus, many of those "old" cables had been in use for decades. Such is the case, with this balanced AudioQuest Lapis. Its owner says that he bought it new in 1993-94. It's been used for most of the time since. Just an overnight stint on the Cable Cooker extends, or goes beyond, what over a quarter century of regular use does. But for full effect, the Lapis (this Cooker has treated over a dozen) has an optimal Cook time of 4 days.
