Leave solid state amps on? Or turn off everytime?

Hi,

My system consists of the following:

Slimdevices Transporter -> Bel Canto REF1000 Mono block amps -> Anthony Gallo Ref3.1 Speakers

I was wondering, should I be switching the Bel Canto amps on/off every time I listen to music? Or should I just leave them on permanently and only switch the transporter on/off (which i do anyways)?

Thanks

Its only wasteful if you cant afford it, if you can stand the heat then leave em on but know your gonna pay for it monthly.

Please cite the manuals to which you specifically refer.

Thanks in advance.

FWIW my Pass Labs x2.5 pre-amp does not have a power switch. The only way to turn it off is to unplug it.

Give me a break Grant and spare me the lecture, I have always liked you and respect you but to equate a desire to leave an amp on for best sound with the mortgage meltdown fuled by irresponsible purchasers and lenders and a lack of proper requlation is way off base and I know for a fact you are smarter than that so please dont pretend not to be.
