Do you keep your amps and preamps on all the time


HI, I just wnated to know if it is a good idea to leave the pre amp, amp and CD player in the "on" position 24/7 all the time, even if the amp, feels like you can fry an egg over it already.

Thanks

I keep 'em on all the time except bad weather or trips, but I run SS with relatively low idle consumption. Almost all SS will have no problem being on 24/7 if you don't mind paying the power bill. Tubes are a different matter altogether; running 24/7 will reach lifespan on most tubes within a year or two.
