Ok . Thanks for that advice. I have the VK40 solid state unit which sounds great! I will leave it on as you suggest unless I'm going out of town for a few days. Even in standby mode it takes about 50 seconds to warm up enough to use . I Havnt noticed if the sound gets appreciably better the longer it's left on after that. I've actually just gotten the unit so not too familiar with it yet. I used to keep my Pass Aleph P preamp on all the time! Heck, it didn't even have an on / off switch!! I guess Nelson knew what he was doing!!
Thanks
Thanks
