turning off/on

Posted by: Ian Preston on 06 November 2000

As i leave my amp on continously, do i really need to go through the process of switching off the amp before turning the cd player on. Why is this necessary-should i just leave the player on all the time as well?

Leave it all on, all the time (beware lightning storms, though)... just mute the output when not in use.

You mean, there's spare voltage in Auckland these days to run HiFi?

Why would I mute?

I'd leave it ALL on ALL the time. Even well run-in gear can take several days to get back to its musical peak after a power-down.

I kind of dread the thought of powering off anything, even for a short period to clean the mains plugs contacts. it always sounds so grumpy afterwards.....
