Audience aR6-TSS Power Conidtionor

I’m using an Audience aR6-TSS Power Conditioner since last year Summer and I just love it. Everytime after I use it, I will switch it off, but Audience’s dealer told me unless I’m not at home for a long period. Otherwise, I better to turn it on continually everyday without switch it off.  Otherwise, the switch may worn out later if I turn it it on and off everyday.   I don’t feel safe if I switch it on continually, especially when I left home to work. So what is the correct answer?

Hi lalitk and edm

Have you compare AR6-TSS and AR6-TSSOX at the same time? If you can give score on it, how many scores you will give these two products? Supposed 100 is highest score.

For example:
AR6-TSSOX = If you give 100
AR6-TSS = 95? 90? 85?....


THX!

I did not compare the TSS and TSSOX side by side.  So it would be hard to score simply because level of improvements are purely subjective and relative to associate gear.  

I have owned every possible iteration of Audience line conditioners. With each upgrade I have heard improvements in my system. 

You can find great price on used line conditioner on Audiogon. I saw couple of aR6-TSSOX in the range of $4K with Au24SE power cord. That's almost 50% savings.

Another vote for leaving the power conditioner "on".

re TSS vs TSSOX, I had the TSSD and TSSOX side by side and IME the difference was at least as good when I upgraded from the T to TSS. As expected, the law of diminishing returns remains valid here.

I happen to install the bypass caps in the xo of my speakers and the result is crazy good, my system has never sounded so good before, I get almost everything I can hope for, giving the setup with limited room treatment.

What does the "D" in TSSD stand for?  Can't find it anywhere using the Google machine.
