years. The long burn-in is caused by the fancy upgraded caps.
The latest info on teflon caps is that minimum break-in is 500 hours.

I suggest that you connect a cheap CD or DVD player to your Prestige, via the digital inputs, select the appropriate input, play a loud CD on repeat every night at maximum volume (power amp off) for about 30 days. That should break-in the caps nicely.
Good luck
