power conditioner with off switch

Hi everyone,

I know that most audiophiles would recommend leaving your components on if not in standby full time. Unfortunately I don't have the opportunity to listen as often as I'd like to so I would prefer to turn everything off when not in use. I am interested in finding a high quality power conditioner that has the ability to turn off to stop vampire power usage. Any suggestions?

why not just disconnect the power cords from a line conditioner ? i just turn off each component when not in use. my power conditioners, ps audio power plant and adept response, have on/off switches.

Sound Application, Blue Circle music ring, and Dodd Audio all have an on/off switch. May be handy if your gear, such as a DAC, doesn't have a power switch.

Torus has separate banks that can be turned off individually. Switches are on the front for easy access.

I use a Furman Elite PF15i in both my 2 channel and HT systems. This unit has an off/on switch that can shut down the entire system and allows 12v switching for your amp/pre-amp if needed.
