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 ?

Sorry, Nsgarch, but I still didn't haven't found anything about taht subject.
So, if you come back here, could you please resume the general opinion about that question, and mainly your's ?

Thank you !
Thank you Bob_bundus for your informations !
Yes, I have a line conditioner with surge protection. But I will turn off and unplug everything in case of thunderstorm or away from home for few days.

Is there any possibility that an amplifier or preamplifier coult burn into flames when on, like it happens more often than some think with tv sets ?
