| Wire break-in safe without speakers? "You are correct. But the cables will not "burn in" without a completed circuit–speakers or a load." Ok this makes sense. 😎 Would the RCA cables break in just hanging off the playing CD player? | |
| Wire break-in safe without speakers? I understand that tube amp generally needs a load because of the output transformers but thought SS amps were ok without. | |

Reading a lot of complaints of the units not functioning correctly, shutting down/freezing. Many ... | |
| Need a processor and matching amp for about $1k Any other way to approach this then? Not thrilled with buying a receiver with 200 ports with an ok amp section.
