However, I can see a problem with different values of caps. The smaller values would block lower frequency signals, so it might make sense to burn in caps of only the same value in a chain.That's the theory. However, the Cable Cooker is sending a very powerful, high-voltage/high-current multiplex signal that I believe makes that theory irrelevant in practical terms. Please note that the Cooker is not passing an audio signal (or sine wave). Some end users have conditioned complete crossovers (outside of the speakers) with great success. Those generally have a variety of caps, and values.
From the long times that I've seen mentioned for burning in V-caps though, this could end up taking a few months. I think that I would be getting the Fry cleaner rather than the cable cooker because of its lower price. But am I right in guessing that it has less power, and therefore longer burn-in times?
You are correct.
