eqipment on 24/7?


what are the current thoughts about leaving upper-end digital audio gear on 24/7? I leave my high-current A/B integrated on stand-by when not in use, but was advised to leave CD player, streamer, DAC, etc on 24/7. Good advise?

Both EmmLab Dac2 and Lyngdorf 2170 sounds smooth and more refined after 24 hours warmup.

Thus I leave all the Dac 24/7 on including Dave Chord and Mscaler.
As I've written elsewhere, my current, hot running Luxman 507ux integrated warms up in no time at all.


My Class D amps take days. Like 2-4 days. They used 7W at idle, so I left them on all the time.
I power all my equipment down when I'm done listening.  I do find that, after powering it back up, it takes 10-15 minutes for it to "warm up" and sound its best.
Used to keep most equipment on "standby". Now it's off entirely but warms up in an hour. My electric bill went down quite a bit as well.
