Do you leave your components on 24/7?

Lately I've been leaving my components on all the time, on the assumption that a) they'll be ready when I want to listen, and b) the on/off cycle ages the equipment (tubes, anyway) faster than leaving everything on. Is the latter a reasonable assumption?

No I do not;my cd player and pre/processor have standby switches as well as my tubed amps but they stay powered off
unless I plan to listen then they are put in standby mode and left there until listening is done.
