Burn in time for a new CD transport?

Just purchased a new Camridge CXC transport for my headphone system and am wondering what the expected burn in time would be so as not to start trying different cables to dial it in before the unit has burned in?

I bought the CXC about 9 months ago, and although I initially let it play on repeat for about 8 hours before first listening to it, I have not noticed any change thereafter. A Synergistic black fuse and some Herbies Big Baby Booties did make some changes though....for the better. :)

There are 8 (IIRC) phillips head screws to remove to slide the cover off, and once that's removed there's another semi-rigid cover in the back right corner that's secured by a single screw. Remove it, and the fuse is quite easy to get to in a standard clip-type fuse holder. Mine uses a 5x20mm 2 amp slo-blo -- but I wouldn't order one until you get your unit and see what's inside. If they made any changes since I bought mine, that value might be different.
