Amp — Leave on or turn off


I always turned my Benchmark AHB2 amp off after use every night. After all, why is there an on off switch on the front panel if not to do that? Last night I accidentally left it on. This morning, when I played my first record, I couldn’t believe my ears. The same record I played last night sounded infinitely better. I tried a second record and that, too, was much better.
I know there’s a debate on the question of leaving an amp on all the time.
I now know where I stand!

Other members that have chimed in know a lot more than I do, but the only thing I would add is this...If you do plan on leaving your electrical components on 24/7, make sure your Homeowners Insurance Policy is paid each month and hope that a Fire Department station is near your house.  As some of us unfortunatley know, sh*t happens.
