Pros and cons of leaving your DAC on 24/7


I hate waiting for equipment to warm up. But I don't want to kill a components lifespan by leaving it on, if that's a danger. My Musical Fidelity V90 DAC takes a little while to sound its best. I think most DACs do.  I leave it on 24/7. Anyone have a problem doing the same?

I also have a MF V90 DAC. I used to turn it off when not listening. Lately, I just leave it on, it doesn't take much power to run and I think the in-rush current when switching it on probably does more harm than leaving it on, just my opinion.

How do you like the DAC? I've recently upgraded some of my other components and am wondering about an upgrade to the V90 DAC. I have another system with a Lavry DA10 Black DAC that sounds incredible but it has a much higher price tag. Any thoughts?
