Cable Burn-in Question

A well repected cable manufacture's instructions suggested their cables need several hours of burn-in to reveal their true sonic qulaities and cables wont reach full potential, and thus avoid critical listening, for 200 hours. Not wanting to put these in my primary system (between pre and amps) and leaving tube equipement running during the day when I am not home or alternatively, it taking a amonth to a month and a half to reach 200 hours, I was thinking about hooking them up between a SS pre and power amp with a dummy load (8 ohm resistor across the speaker terminals, then leaving them on with either a complex classical CD on repeat, or a de-tuned FM station. Comments please!
