    Phono Pre-Amp Burn-In

    I wanted to share a device I found to help with logging some hours on a phono pre-amp. It is obviously a much harder piece of gear to burn-in given the nauture of the source. Just use the line output of a CDP into the KAB Precon and out to a your phono input.
    At a reasonable $80 it certainly helps the process along much more quickly.

    The 'burn in signal' is whatever you would like it to be from a CD player.
    No 'Tom Foolery" just allows you to play music or a burn-in disc to log time on a phono pre-amp. I am using one right now and it works exactly as described.
