Leave tube amps always on?


Mark, the owner of Linear Tube Audio, suggested I leave my tube amps on all the time 24/7 if im listenting every day, and to turn them off if not using for a period of time, a few days or for example we go away.  His reasoning was that it uses considerable more energy to turn on/off on a regular basis. 

Do others agree?  Kinda risky since these NOS Mullard tubes ain't cheap and will soon be gone forever.

i am surprised to hear of the unreliability of the rogue audio unit in your hands

was it an older or well used unit?  did you try to have them fix the problem?

i have had a eye on rogue, as a good, made in usa, brand of tube gear - the brand seems to have quite a few proponents on this and other forums, was perhaps going to try one sometime

now this gives me a little pause
