Burning Burn in question


I need to burn in a DAC/preamp that apparently needs a few 100hrs to come to live. My question is do I need to connect it to a poweramp and actualy play music during burn in? I would think that if there is no downstream load there will be voltage on the outputs but no current drawn. So you do in fact need to play music. Am I wrong?

Hi Edorr

So your DAC and Preamp are one and the same and not separates right? I would say just make sure music is being fed to your DAC for the 100 or so hours and also make sure your preamp is connected to the amp. No need to have the amp on unless you want to hear your set-up burning in. Whenever I'm burning a DAC or preamp I want a signal going through it.
