Always on ?


I dont'speak of holidays, of course.
But when you listen to music every day, is it better to let all your material on ?
For instance (for me), Accuphase P-7000, Accuphase preamplifier C-2000, Accuphase SACD/CD DP-85, Lamm phono premaplifier LP2 (tubes).

I understand that for the sound it's better, no warming every day, but what about the electricity bill and, more important, the lasting of the material ?

Thanks for the professional input. I have begun doing as you suggested.

If you are worried about lightening, then be sure to unplug everything. If your house is hit by lightening, it is unlikely any surge protector will survive to protect your gear. There is simply too much energy in lightening.
Speaking of leaving stuff on, the old Spatial Coherence preamp required 7 days to warm up, per the owners manual. Actually, it really took 6 weeks. If you are thinking this is a design flaw, you are thinking right. Of course, it only drew 4 watts so that wasn't a big deal after you owned it for a month.
