Switched outlet for power amp

A lot of we crazy audiophiles never turn our amps off because it sounds better after it's been on for a period of time. I thought it was a crazy idea for a long time too, but my opinion changed. I can hear a difference. But, to each their own opinion. I only turn things off if we are leaving for days or the threat of a voltage surge due to weather.

Agree with bullitt. Every amp I have owned, tube or ss, sounded best after burn in, warm up, whatever term you want to use. Not only in tonality, but in pure ease, smoothness and finesse. I leave all of my ss gear on, continuously, as I listen daily. 

Why would you ever want to shut your amp off? All my amps have been on for the last 40 years. The only time they go off is during a power outage. That's the only time I touch the power switch. It's harder on your amp to turn it on and off all the time, and wears out the switch. Turn it on and fuggetaboutit. And switched outlets?! That ain't audiophile stuff there son.

I've given up on the switched outlet concept, amd have decided to follow the designer's instructions to turn it on and off.
