Best interconnect burn-in method


I think I know the answer to this, but I just wanted to double check with everyone.  I am in the process of burning in an XLR interconnect.  The interconnect is between the DAC and the integrated amp.  I am using a laptop as the source, and it is connecting via USB cable to the DAC.  Is it true that I am still burning in the XLR IC if I leave the integrated amp turned off while playing music continuously on my laptop with the DAC turned on?  Thank you for your input.

@shadorne ,
I’m not here to debate the concept of cable burn-in, god knows it’s been done before. But what the manufacturers do state is that newly installed cables need a settling in period. For example, cables that have been coiled and packed in a box for some time, need to be installed, let the dielectric reach room temp, and run a signal through them.

@shadorne Your statement flies in the face of Audioquest's Dielectric Bias System and an understanding that once installed in a system, cable dielectrics "form" after a period of time with signal flowing through them.  AQ's DBS system sends 72 volts through the cable to keep the dielectric formed at all times after initial break-in.  As the dielectric forms the cables tend to "open up" in terms of sound quality.  It is actually a cool thing to experience if you have never had the occasion to do so.  Lots of unexpected pleasures in this hobby.  That's one of them.
