I keep my old Belles 400A on all the time. It has no stand-by. Luckily, for start-up and shut-down for the rest of the system, I have an ifi Mini Tube2 between the pre and amp that disconnects/connects the connection when I turn it off/on, but the amp stays powered 24/7.
While not in use, it cools off and stays cool. I’ve watched my electrical use and no change after many months of doing this. When I start-up the system, the Belles is also ready to go.
As this amp is over 30+ years old, I’ve been told there is less strain on any old parts to keep it on vs turning it off and on daily. So I do.
