Correct way to burn in a new CD/SACD player


Just took deliver of my new Marantz SA 11 today. Have seen where many people suggest you turn it on and let burn in for several hours before actually playing. Don't see anything in my owners manual about this. What's the best/most widely recognized method to help insure the very best sound quality?

Hey folks,
Thanks for the good comments. I know I can more than likely just turn it on and listen away. However, I'm down with my speaker system for at least another week or so and I'm supposed to be getting a "break-in" CD from Amazon this coming Monday.
Tom 6897, what have you seen as a problem with the "stock" power cord? Was just sitting, having a cup of coffee with my wife this morning while looking at the "trash" interconnect cables Marantz sent with this "high-dollar" unit. Would you think if they can build the quality of CD player this is supposed to be, they could also spend $2 bucks more for a higher quality cable?
Andy yes, this is the latest "S3" variation. Was able to get a fair deal this past week. Would have been more than happy with a left-over "bronze" colored "S2!"
