Burnt in, indeed! I agree with you on the is one Oldphrt! I would be interested to hear the same cable type, but one fresh one and one burnt in one for comparison!
Isn't it odd though that, as far as I'm aware, the burn in period will always bring improvements!
But, as I've said before, just 'cos I don't understand it, doesn't mean I think it's impossible (I mean - how can the moon be made of cheese?! But it is.).

Now I can't comment about cables, but I almost returned my new CD player in the first few days that I brought it home, thinking it was faulty because it sounded so different from what I heard in the store. However, now that it's been properly run-in, I couldn't be happier. Frankly, I wouldn't have believed it myself that running-in has that much of a difference, but I believe it now that I've heard it with my own ears.
For example, you've now experienced for yourself how different every interconnect sounds, so do you think that oldphrt can convince you otherwise with some technical theory of why interconnects cannot sound different? The thing is to keep your mind open until your own experience proves/disproves the theory.
