There's a variance. shielded, braided, cable of good physical quality with quality connectors aren't really a waste IMO. I'm not sure how we got from burning in a coax cable to this though. You also said your DIGITAL to DIGITAL converter needs a 200 hour burn in.
I just hate seeing stuff like this posted all over this site when people just talk out of their butts (you basically admitted you said that because the SALESMAN told you). Then the next person believe it without doing any research. Then the next. A whole horde of people just end up getting sucker'd into BS and end up spending a crap-load of money for nothing.
Yes the person who created the cable said burn in was needed. Otherwise by way of extension, we shouldn't trust anything Baldr has to say about the Yggy.
I think we should keep the burn in talk restricted to the science forum. If you hear changes, or didn't hear changes due to burn in on the Yggy, feel free to post your opinions, but let's not turn this into a burn in debate.

Yes what would Baldr know about it he just built it. I think he is a shill for the cable companies and AES/EBU converter people . You can't trust a thing he says. Tongue out of cheek.
I would say that cables and accessories etc...are like religion now; you have faith, try it else ignore, do not attack on others .
In my religion, interconnects and power cables do make a difference, not sure about digital cable though. In my case I am using specialized feet under Yggy and that too brought in benefits. I have already had someone's wrath on this so please pardon me this time .

I trust what Baldr says. but we're not talking about DACs and DAC input, we're talking about some guy saying his coax cable needs a 100 hr burn in, and a DDC needing 200 hours.
Whole lotta strawmen posting here. I just wish such claims were kept in the sound science forum and not here.
I don't have strong feelings one way or the other. Then again I am not going to make fun of people because they believe something different than I do......

I believe you miss read . They said they have burned in the amount but I don't believe the manufacturer recommend that. One said the maker said 16 hours not sure if it was the same person though. Straw men aside what claims are you referring too?

I was the one that said the cable maker told me to let the coax cable burn in for 100 hours.
However, I went back and re-read the email thread. I was wrong. He said it takes "about 100 hours" for the XLR headphone cables he makes to burn in. My mistake.

This was mentioned in the specs, but hell, its only 16 hours. I don't care playing them over night, I'm pretty sure when I listen in the morning it will sound the same as new.
I also mentioned that I don't believe in burn-in effect. Also, don't believe in expensive cables can improve sound, they may "change" the sound, for instance when I switched from copper to silver on the LCD 3s, they were surely brighter.
