Power Cord Burn-In

Just turn on your cdp.Current will pass thru your power transformer for the cdp power supply.Your not burnning in an interconnect.

Yes. You don't even have to play the disc if your cdp is on. My experience has been that power cords do not need as much break in time as ICs and speaker cables. Of course running your cdp, with a disc will pull a tad more current from the wall then, just, leaving the cdp on. That's, thinking about it, the better way to break in that pc. peace, warren

I would concur with Richard that running the cord on the CDP is not the place to do it and you need more current. That being said, I have experienced very positive results "burning in" cords on a refrigerator or chest freezer using a simple 3 prong female to male iec adapter that I had thought were previously burned in and had been running on my integrated amp and line conditioner for months. You can pick up one of these adapters at most electronics supply houses, possibly at larger computer stores, for about $3.

Based on this experience, I have no trouble believing in those who have experimented with cable cookers or have sent their cables out to be cooked, but that obviously is a more expensive and time consuming proposition.

I use a few weeks on my computer or the burner.

I also do what Panny does, but only for 4-5 days.

Computers are good for audio AC cord break-in, they have 100-200 watt power supply and don't tie up stereo system.
Turn off sleep/hybernation power mode on computer when using to break in AC cord.
