Base POST time from cold power up is longer on the X99 platform than the Z series platforms due to the training processes for quad channel memory and more PCIe lanes taking longer. Check the POST codes that are cycling, if they are memory related then its the memory training that is taking time. You can stop the system from training each time by enabling attempt cold fast BOOT in the DRAM timing menu. The side effect of doing that is the chance of increased memory instability.
Certain USB devices can slow down BOOT time - but those usually occur at the splash screen rather than before it (unless it's just before in your case).

Hi Guys !
I'm using the maximus viii formula z170 motherboard, boot time for me is around 30 seconds from the time I press the power button until I'm in windows, I'm using the ocz vector sata sdd. If you can make it to windows in 17 seconds that's pretty good in my opinion.
As Raja says DDR4 memory training takes longer than with previous motherboards, I sometimes hit the power button then go to the fridge and grab something to drink, by the time I come back it's ready to go. 🙂
