All,

Is there such thing as a "silent" burn in, i.e. plugging your headphone amp into, say, a CD player and then *not* plugging your headphones in and just letting the CD run to burn in new interconnects?

Or, alternately, doing all the above AND plugging in the headphones, but turning the volume down?

I'd much prefer one of these "silent" burn-ins, as I wouldn't then have to cover the 'phones with hollow blankets and such to shuddem up.

Yeah, the "silent" burn-in works just fine. As long as it's not the Sennheiser Clou cables you're trying to burn-in, of course.

...the two is the best or works or whatever? Anything that doesn't work?

Thanks.

Doesn't really matter which method you use, both should work equally well. Though just to be safe, I would at least leave the amp on during burn-in. Volume shoudn't matter.

Why not leave the amp playing from the radio or the cd on repeat when you're out during the day? Thats what I did when I recently burnt in a pair of new speaker cable I got recently (kimber 4vs biwired

) Now it sounds amazing!!
