Amplifier warm up


I was plalying Boz Scaggs, "Silk Degrees" LP.  After side one, I ate dinner.  One hour later I played side 2.  The second side sounded clearer, more vibrant with better sound stage. I have a Parasound P6 preamp and Parasound Halo A21+ amp.  Is it possible that an hour of warm up improved performance?

A lot of the class D (non pro stuff), says "Leave it on". In the summer anything with valves gets turned off.. 15-30 min in the summer time for a tube preamp to warm up.. An hour in the winter though.. I like 60 degrees in the winter, with valve amps and valve preamps.. It takes about 30 min, if I played them the day before..(winter). The speakers sound better on cool crisp days, too.
