Out of the mouths of innocents

conversation today with my wife:

she: "you seem to be leaving your HiFi playing all the time recently. Did you realise you left it on all night at low volume yesterday?"

me: " ah, yes, that's deliberate. I'm trying to burn in a new interconnect cable. It improves with use and they say needs hundreds of hours to sound it's best"

(sideways look of incredulity from she..)

she: "is that the £1800 cable that you want me to get you for your birthday?"

me: "yes"

she: "I would say that a company that charges so much for a cable would at the very least make sure that it was ready to use at the time they sold it to you shouldn't they? "

As the great Eric would say: "there's no answer to that!"

If it's the interconnect, can't you just mute the amp?

A fantastic question. And actually a very good one....

Just mute the amp at night. Also try a TelluriumQ burn disk - worked for me.
