Description 

 
Congratulations!  You have just purchased one of the highest performance-per-dollar 
audiophile products available.  The FryBaby audio system conditioner is a burn-in signal 
generator designed especially for cables and interconnects. It can also be used to burn-in 
linestages, phonostages, and amplifiers. The sophisticated electronic waveform – a 
combination of wideband noise and variable frequency amplitude modulation – is 
designed to provide maximum effectiveness without resorting to high power levels.  
FryBaby is part of the FryKleaner

TM

 series of professional cable burn-in generators. 

 
The FryBaby half-kit consists of a blank circuit board, LED dome lens, lens ring, four 
screws, some wire, and these instructions.  To complete, you must purchase the 
remaining parts yourself from Mouser Electronics (

www.mouser.com

).   

 

Features 

 

• 

Unique signal waveform 

• 

Three output levels 

• 

iRIAA equalized for MC and MM phonostages. 

• 

Includes power supply 

• 

Breaks in both cables and electronics 

 

Tools 

 
You will need a few basic shop tools (screwdriver, pliers, wire cutters, etc.) and a fine-tip 
soldering iron to build this kit.
