Keeping your Pass Labs Amplifier on all the time


Hello Fellow Audiogoners.

My electric bills are quite high with an average of $150.00
per month in the winter time.
Has anyone tried using your amplifier in the stand-by mode, rather then keeping it turned on all the time?
I own a Pass Labs 350.5 amplifier.

Advice would be appreciated.

I'm a proud and happy owner of a Symphonic Line RG7 MK4 amplifier. The amp's designer, Mr. Rolf Gemein, recommends to leave the amp on all the time for best sonic performance. I highly concur. After approximately 2-3 weeks of being left on, the amp's sonic qualities jumped from being excellent to revelatory! Liquidity, transparency and sheer musicality were immensely improved. I once read a post here that says a SL owner, after hearing the benefits of keeping the amp on, kept in powered continuously for three years!
