Anyone have experience with "burn-in generators"?


Looking for a way to speed up the burn-in of interconnects. Googled "cable burn in" and got link to the "FryBaby". A bit pricey ($250) for a hopefully 1-time task. Anyone try using it, or something similar.

Connecting the cable to a fridge is a great idea. I actually tried it at some point but found the sound coming the the cable to be a bit too cold. So I connected the cable to the stove for a couple of days and voila! Perfectly burned in cable. You might also consider leaving it out in the sun for a while. All these sun rays definitely have to improve sound cable quality...
I just realized that the LHC (the large particle accelerator built in Switzerland that recently found the Higgs Boson and contains billions of dollars worth of unbelievably sensitive detectors) probably did not burn in their cables! Shall we let them know that burning them in will definitely improve detection?
