Beat those commercial craps.

Hi.

What is cable being "overcooked"?

I want to learn from those cable cookers manufacturers/vendors the scientific or technical explanation, let alone documentary substantiation, on how audio cables can be 'overcooked', if not 'undercooking'.

Give us a break, please. It is OK to promote a merchandise, but it got to be done fairly & factually to the consumers rather than using scary tactics.

How can an audio cable/cord be overcooked? We should know the fact that the cables have gone through bigtime lots of "cooking" to their current being. They are built up of copper or silver conductors/strands, & the insulation/dielectric/jacket which were molten hot rolled, pulled & pressure extruded to their permanent shape, let alone multi KV spark test as per UL/CSA rating if appliable.

Most cable cookers makers seldom, if ever, reveal what technolgy is used to cook cables, commercial secret, I guess.

I always use wideband white noises (up to 20KHz), with adjustable voltage/power level, to break in the min 4N silver ICs & power cords I build for own use & for audiophile friends, in min a non-stop sessions of a few days.

Ever overcooked my cables/cords? I don't think so. They all sound so silky & musical.
