Do you leave CD players with tube outputs on?


I was wondering how many owners of cd players with tube outputs leave their CD players on all the time. I have a Ayon CD-1 with a tube output stage. Based on input I received I've been turning off after listening and let it warm-up at least a half hour before each use. On the other hand, it is my understanding that the electronic circuits for CD players need around 72 hours of being on to reach their full potential. Is there any harm in leaving a CD player with tubes on all the time other than a shortening of tube life?

It would be interesting to compare the cost of 24/7/365 energy consumption to price of new tubes.
