Conditioning/Burn-In Method

Now, to business.

I'm in the process of working in a set of Signal Cable Silver Resolution XLR interconnects between my DAC, Preamp and Amplifier. So far, I probably have only 20 hours or so of play, and if memory serves, Frank recommends 60 hours or more. Given the difference in amplitude from DAC to Preamp, and from Preamp to Amplifier, do you guys think it might be worth swapping them out (rotating them) to help balance and perhaps accelerate the process?

Thanks in advance!

Great stuff gentlemen, my experience was this . I purchased 2 pr. of Morrow MA5 RCA’s recently. Due to being on vacation at time of shipping , Mike just left my cables on the break in station longer . They received 11 days straight . So using my fingers and toes , 264 hours on his MACHINE. So I’m thinking plug and play . Well it took about 300 hours more of use time before they really smoothed out . His cables have a reputation for needing a long burn in . As far as your speaker cables , I’d run your resistor substitute by Bryston via email . I’d be interested to hear their reply . Thanks for the post . Mike B.
