Re: Run in of new Amp?
1 Plug in guitar
2 Crank amp
3 Play.
Seriously...use a clean tone with lotsa mid range, crank the volume up and hit lots of open chords.
Someone smarter than I will chime in shortly about sending a tone through the speaker and leaving it for hours on end...

Re: Run in of new Amp?
The Peavey tech runs about a 50-100 Hz signal through the speakers at about conversation volume for 24-48 hours. All it does is loosen up the speakers quickly so that you don't have to sit the playing for an entire weekend before you get the best sound out of them.
Just follow Vorbis's regime and have fun while you do it.

Plug in your cd player to the line input and play Abba cds for the next 5 hours at 10 - won't do much for you or the amp but guarrantee the neighbours will be ga ga!! 
You can't do THAT on stage!
