Question regarding burn-in


I fear that this may be a stupid question, but I'm still a neophyte in the high-end world ...

If I want to burn in an interconnect between my preamp and power amp by playing a source for a number of continuous hours (24? 48? 96?), does the power amp need to be powered up?

Additionally, any suggestions on the burn-in process would be helpful. I've been looking for a reference article, but haven't found anything that provides much detail.

Thanks,

Martin

George Cardas thinks there is no need to have everything on. Please go to the following link and click Cable Use on the right hand side for more details.

Personally, I never purposely burn in cables. I just let music take care of it during normal listening.
