I stream 24/7. Do you?

@nrenter My big SS mono blocks and preamp are Hegel.  I have posed this question to Hegel.  They're take is the equipment has soft start circuitry,  that SS equipment requires only  few minutes to warm up and constant power just shortens the lifespan.  I can't see any reason they are giving me bad advice.  In the end, whatever makes us happy.  Cheers. 

@bigtwin, that’s great! You should listen to the manufacturer. However, my commentary still stands. 

Don’t almost all equipment have a standby switch nowadays? 

I wish I kept Tidal.  Went to Qobuz for the free trial and didn't cancel it time so I'm stuck with it for a year..  My  bad.  

I hate Qobuz's playlists and they have too many gaps.  

I'm an old guy.  I grew up on vinyl, CD, cassette tape, reel to reel and 8 track tape.  I have a very expensive, high resolution audio system.  But, at this juncture, all I do is stream from Tidal, Qobuz and downloads.  Why?  The combination of convenience and the fantastic sound quality of streamed music ultimately won me over.  I just made sure I used very high quality devices to stream my music, which produce outstanding and very compelling sound quality through my system.  High end audio is one, big, expensive toy store.  And you get to decide which toys you like playing with.  Whatever turns you on.  Happy listening.
