Break in for ICs from CDP


Just refresh me guys. I know the cdp has to be playing and the ICs have to be hooked up to my integrated. I was told, however, my integrated need not be on. I believe that is the deal, but I have brain lock. Also, any tips for IC break in. The manufacturer says these babies will need 250 hours. They told me my integrated need not be on. Just want to check with my fellow audiophools....
thanks in advance, warren :)

Ooh, sorry,Tvad. I wasn't aware that Warrenh had gotten another Cdp. I just read where you put your above question post in the CLC thread and you mentioned something about putting the cork back in the bottle, so,well,...
Tvad = off
nsgarch = on

Man, I thought I would get something a little more definitive. I'll have to search the archives, I suppose. thanks guys. peace, warren :)
Anyone wanting interconnects or digital cables broken in is welcome to send them to me to be broken in on the MOBIE break-in device I have here. The MOBIE (Maximum Overdrive Break In Engine) puts a 15V 1 kHz square wave through your cables, which has been proven safe for all done so far (check with your cable manufacturer if any question). Your only cost is shipping both ways and one of your best live CDs for each. I will break them in for five days or thirty days, your choice. There's very little in it for me other than the good karma that comes from offering this service to fellow audiophiles and music lovers...
