Does each circuit of the DAC-10H have to be burned in separately?

What is the proper connection for use with AudioEngine A5+ powered speakers?

SE outputs to SE inputs on A5's. Not sure what you mean by each individual circuit.  Just connect a CD player to it on repeat and let it run 24/7 for a week.  Speakers don't have to be powered on.

Thanks for the help.. The reason I asked about separate burn-in is because I've only used the DAC-10H with headphones until recently, and the AudioEngine speakers sound lifeless compared to use with a $100 DAC.

Worth trying running it for a while and see if it does need to be done separately. I only have the standard DAC-10 so never had to contemplate that issue.

The headphone amp circuit is on the front panel so until you use headphones, it doesn't get burn in.  I doubt it requires much burin-in time. Typically capacitors are the components that need the most burn in time.
