Leave an amp "on" permanetly

i have a pair of tube amps and contrary to popular opinion, i don't notice a difference between 10 minutes and 100 minutes, as to sound quality. keep in mind, while you are waiting for the amp, preamp and cd player to warm up, there may be changes in consumption of electricity by your neighbors, which will affect the sound of a stereo system.

intelligent use of energy is an indication of maturity.

hi mcpody:

i live in an area where the quality of the "ac" varies during the day. the affect of the "ac" is more of an issue than warm up. you certainly are entitled to your perception and opinion. i respecfully disagree with you.

in answer to your question. i don't hear a difference in the room or out of the room.

hi mcpody:

i don't mind a good ribbing now and then. i have a psaudio p 300 for source components, but nothing for my tube amps.
i have been dissuaded from using a conditioner with an amplifier.

have you had any experiences with one ?

i use ps audio noise harvesters. at night 4 of them are blinking. when the temparture is over 80 degrees, i really have a problem. air conditioners are in use,their is a greater demand for electricity and the sound often degrades.

perhaps a hydra or richard grey may help. thanks for your suggestion.
