Will leaving an amp powered-up all the time...
As recommended in the owners manual, my Plinius 8200 mk II integrated is left on all the time (unless I won't be listening for greater than 5 days). Pliniius states the amp needs atleast 24 hours of warm-up to sound it's best. 
Suggestions for an integrated amp?

Silverline Sonata I 
Speaker suggestions
I have Silverline Sonata II's and recommend them. While they are rear ported, the base is not boomy. Very good for female vocals and jazz. They also give you excellent flexibility from an amplification standpoint in case you want to experiment wit...
