"Burn-In" quietly?


If a person wanted to burn in a pre AND an amp at the same time, but didn't want to put up with listening to a CD on repeat forever, could you disconnect your speaker cables from the amp and then run a CD on repeat?

I agree with Metro. Use power resistors and burn everything in silently. Much less annoying and safe to boot!
Thanks folks, I'll go with the resistors (after checking with the manufacturer)
LOL @ Bartokfan, (insert tounge in cheek here) DUDE, but how about that burn in time on the "clever little clock"? I've had mine modded by GNSC ....... sweet!
I am constantly amazed by the perceived need to gimmick the process. Why not just listen to music softly and actually ENJOY the journey? Why are we so hell bent on "getting there" for instant satisfaction instead of learning something about the process of how things change with time? Look this is not prewashed, faded and torn jeans folks. It's not even aged single malt, though to be fair that too does take time. And it is not "set it, and, forget it."

I am simply flabbergasted by such threads.

Guess I'm just from the old school of the living.

Look, just listen to your system, it's what you bought the damn thing for in the first place, right?
Stevecham, well put my friend! I don't think it's old school at all to suggest the journey should be savored. For example when I pack up the motorhome for a trip, getting there is most of the fun. Anyway my system is on most of the time, even when I'm not in the listening room for background music. You right, it shouldn't be turned into a chore.
