Theduke: Thanks! I had a feeling after writing that piece that such was the case. You are right. To make it simple (which I should have done to begin with) is leave the items that are used the most frequently in an unswitched outlet and the reverse for all other pieces.
Thanks for getting that right!
In the end, Djones1915 has to decide what pieces of equipment he wants burning up power 24/7 and which ones are best left "off" until ready to use them. I found out the expensive way that leaving the monos on standby all the time racked up the power bill something fierce - they draw the same amount of current in standby as they do in use. That is a consideration.
