Thank you all for your kind responses. Dekay, don't you just love those silver cable break in times? If I remember correctly you are trying the Homegrown's like me. For their price, I think they are worth the wait. BTW I do keep my digital source on all the time but I will now consider doing the same with my amplifier.
"Burn In" Question
I am burning in a new set of interconnects.My preferred way to do this is to hook them up to a stereo VCR and run TV audio through them all day. My question is, does the integrated amp that I have the cables running to have to be powered up? I would prefer not to leave my more expensive pieces on gathering heat all day. Thanks for the help.
