Are my cables burning in IF...


Just bought some new Musaeus IC's from bgates here at AGON, and I'm using a spare 9000ES to burn them in (I think). Risking massive ridicule from anyone with a passing familiarity of electronics, here are my questions:

Currently I have the cables between the DVD player and my PrePro (through analog bypass).

If I turn off the amp, but leave the DVD player on endless play and the prepro on and selected to its input, are the cables burning in?

What if I keep the DVD player going but switch to another input on the prepro? Is it still burning in?

Yes to both of your questions, as I have been told in the past. As long as you have a signal running through the interconnects - they are burning in, whether the piece of equipment they are running into is turned on or not.
It's weird but it seems like the sound is bright when I first turn the amp on to listen (with the DVD player playing continuously). After listening with the amp for an hour or 2 the sound seems to mellow out (again). I guess it's a case of my ears burning in which definitely needs the amps to be on. ;)

Thanks for your replies.
