...for $49 from Hagerman Labs (link below). My plan is to connect it between an FM tuner and my phono stage to finish breaking in the Teflon caps. As you noted, 200 to 400 hours some claim for Teflon cap break-in amounts to a LOT of LPs.

I've put about 60 hours of signal through the caps so far by playing Lps, so I figure a week or two of input from the tuner should be about right.

Search the Vinyl Asylum to read others experiment with the inverse RIAA filter.
