I do believe that moving a cord requires some time to settle. So, when it comes to head phone cords do we ever hear what they really sound like? Or do we just try to get a good sounding cord that never gets to settle. Break in is a different story and I have heard a difference.

Interesting post. Don’t think I’ve ever seen that question before.....

What is the sound of no wire bending? :-|
Toslink F/O is notorious for sonic aberrations while being moved.

I've been wondering the same thing. But how would you remedy this? Would a super stiff cable or a headphone suspended on some sort of immovable rack/stand do it? I'm thinking some kind of harness that would lower on your head but that would be very impractical.

Exactly. However no resolution to issue. I would say one would have to have the wire fixed to a point where there is only movement of a few feet to put on. Then after an hour of listening your good again.
Besides headphones are a trade off to speakers so other than curiosity to the question does it really matter. YES cables take three days to settle back for some odd reason.

What you need is a surplus electric chair. Leg and arm restraints to hold you in a fixed position, and the nifty head piece can hold the phones and keep the wire from moving. Settling issues resolved.

Finally, a sensible solution 👏

I'm sure Dr Frankenstein has one left over.

Maybe a guillotine would serve the same purpose. Not as comfortable though.
A pillory would probably work.
