starting equiment that ic cold from being shipped


Is it a real thing that you court problems if you turn on an ice cold amplifier or pre-amp without waiting 24 hours for temperature to rise.  I have long awaited Krell FPB and KCT shipping tomorrow,  It's single digits in the Midwet.  Should I wait a full 24 hours for the equipment to warm inside before introducing any electricity into the components?

Just stick 'em in the oven at 100 deg F for a couple hours; will markedly reduce any latent humidity and make your cat happier when you set it up for a listen and they take up residence thereon.
