OK to leave power on?


Is it alright to leave my Musical Fidelity A5 integrated amp powered on(ON...not standby)when not in use? It has no remote on/off capability and I may not be able to get into the habit of manually turning it off with power button on the unit. I've also heard different opinions on whether it's actually better to leave an amplifier on all the time.

Do you have surge protection? What if you leave it on and there is a major storm headed to your home? People that leave their equipment on all the time are only making electric companies richer. Most amps are good to go after about 10 - 20 minutes warmup. Even if it's an hour, so what, it will warm up while your listening.
