So I have this new rig- I got a set of HE-500's and a Schiit Lyr and a new cable from Cablepro.  I want to burn this stuff in, but am afraid of wasting the tubes on my amp leaving it running all the time.  Also I am worried about bad stuff happening to the amp when I am not around (ie asleep), like the cat deciding to sleep on it, etc.  Will it matter if I burn in the headphones and the cable on my receiver?  It doesn't have nearly the power of the Lyr, and I was wondering if that made a difference in burn in.  Thanks,
Jason

I prefer to use my receiver for burn in.
So I say use your receiver.

Use something else to burn them in and you can burn in your Lyr while using them.

Use pink noise on an iPod or something.

Go ahead and use your receiver.

Thanks for all the input.  I am burning them in with the receiver.
