add remote control AC on/off for power amp?

Leave it on all the time. It will sound better unless you are getting a Class A amp.

Stanwal,

Even if it is class A, leaving it on is best if you can afford the electric bill.

How about a "Clapper"?
Just kidding. Do you have a 12v trigger on the amp, you don't mention what Brand or Model. If anything in your system does look at the PS audio product line. A lot of
power conditioner/power strips have this feature.

I concur,leave it on,except during storms of course.

Let me add unplug it during storms.

I made the exception for Class A in memory of the time a Krell customer relations official told me that "If you leave our amps on without playing them you void the warranty". I was a Krell dealer at the time and one of my KMA 100s had just blown up for the second time. I had let it warm up for about 15 minutes before giving a demo. We parted company soon after and I don't think either of us has ever missed the other.
