"Breaking time for BeePre and ParAmounts".  Well, if they were mine, I 'd hope for never!  ;D   

As far as "break in"  time,  I'd allow 20-30 hours for stock parts.  Longer for PIO or metalized film in oil, maybe 40-100+ hours.  Teflon caps can be 400 or more!

Cheers,
Geary

Subjectivly on my end with different amplifiers, 1000 hours for full results, but tubes maybe only 500 hours.
