How long daes it take your gear to warm up?


Assuming that one turns off/on the audio equipment every day. How long does it take for your gear to perform as it best after a cold start? I ask because my Rotels RA-1090 need about 2 hr to really shine, otherwise the highs are ear piercing and the bass notes lack some punch. Any of you have to go through a similar time of warm up period?

My systems sound seems to me to be optimum at about 24 hours. Have you ever walked in a room that is real quiet and you think you can hear the quiet. Well you are wrong you are wrong you are wrong. I just felt like I needed to say that. Well that is much like what my system does at about 24 hours so, the sound it puts out seems more colorful musically speaking(not colored tonally). SS amp and preamp, and cdp.
