Doh, left system off all night

I don't leave my system on all the time, because I don't need to. However, it takes about 1.5 hours to come to life, and that's play time. There is an increase to the sound quality up to about 3 hours, but after that It's done.

I can also just turn it on and leave it on, but it still takes about another hour of play time to fully come to life that way.

The bummer, is when I forget to turn it on to start with!

Erik,

I had reported that my system reached its maximum SQ about 1.5 hours after turning it on, so why I don't leave it on. I need to retract that statement.

I accidentally left my system on all weekend when visiting our children out of town, and when we got back my knee-jerk was to shut it down, but instead played my new Ben Allison LP (Newvelle) which I had left on my TT. So, the last thing I listened to before spacing out my system.

The SQ improvement was big, so I wanted to let you know this even though my post was back in December.

Yeah, and l'm in the same boat with not wanting to leave my tube amps on. So, more of an interesting discovery than a practical solution.
