Digital Amplifier Questions


I've been wondering the following:

1. Do digital amps benefit from being left on 24/7in the same way the ss amps do?

2. Is plugging a digital amp into a different outlet as your preamp as crucial compared to a ss amp?

3. Do digital amps have small transformers? If so, is distancing equipment from one another less important? (My peachtre Nova Pre/220 look best stacked)

4. When upgrading power cords on a digital amp, do you look for cords that do well with digital gear like your preamp and dac, or do you still go for a beefy cord?

I apologize ahead of time for my ignorance on the matter! Thanks!

Every component that I've ever had, preamp, amp, dac, etc, has benefited sonically by leaving it on. Even tubes, I eventually turned off my tube gear to save on life, but on long lasting pre amp tubes, I did experiment over a few weeks never turning them off and you could hear it.
