    No just signal. Some leave the radio playing at low volume. There's no fast way I know of.
    All I can say is just play it like any other time. When mine broke in they was definitely times I had to walk away. I left mine play 24/7 for a good month, even after that there were "times" . A year later I sit in amazement every time I sit down.

    Good stuff.

    Those sonicaps do need a few hundred hours to sound good, they sound good,then bad, then good, then bad, then great. That's when you know they are fully burnt in.
