The manufacturer of my class A single ended mono block power amps (Valvet) states the following: "It takes 20 to 30 minutes of warm up time for optimum sound quality. It is recommended NOT to switch off during short pauses. Leaving the E1 amps powered on all the time is o.k. from a technical standpoint but not clever with regard to heat and energy consumption." That stated, mine are turned on when I get home from work and turned off when I go to bed, every day except on week ends when they are on from morning to night. They do sound better after a couple hours "on" time.
Is there any danger in leaving a class D amp on unattended for ten days?
I recently obtained class D (Red Dragon monoblocks) amps.
I have left them on continuously for about a week, and they seem to be improving sonically with every day. I am planning to be away for ten days starting next week. Is it unwise to leave them on unattended for this period?
