Break in for ICs from CDP


Just refresh me guys. I know the cdp has to be playing and the ICs have to be hooked up to my integrated. I was told, however, my integrated need not be on. I believe that is the deal, but I have brain lock. Also, any tips for IC break in. The manufacturer says these babies will need 250 hours. They told me my integrated need not be on. Just want to check with my fellow audiophools....
thanks in advance, warren :)

So as I read this thread I wonder why wouldn't I just buy a $39 cdp or bluray and play copy of the Vandersteen calibration disc or any set up disk. Another thought was to get a cheap used receiver with pre out/ power in and plug the ICs in that spot and let it burn while tuned in to a classical or hip hop station . Any thought on those Ideas?
