Four Hour Tube Amp Warm-Up

I can see why you would do this if the equipment has a auto standby mode that kicks in (my Hegel H590 did but my H30 does not) but otherwise I fail to see the sense.  I'm not aware any any manufacturer that suggests leaving equipment powered up 24/7?  I would think you are only shortening the eventual life span of things doing this?  Just asking.  

@jerryg123 Thanks.  I stand corrected.  My manufacturers, Hegel, Esoteric, Triode Audio Japan, PrimaLuna, all recomend turning equipment off when not in use.  Oh well, whatever works for you is all that counts.  Merry Christmas.
