Quicker warm up advice for pass labs amp

Just for kicks, I looked up some maybe relevant facts. The optical bias Threshold e Series were designed to typically idle between 45 and 50 degrees centigrade. The Aleph 5 at 55C. And the Pass X Series at 45C. The only mention I found regarding leaving any of the amps on is on page 5 of the X Series operating manual: "It will not hurt the amplifier to be left either in operating or stand-by mode constantly, but it is potentially a waste of energy." Does five or ten degrees in the Aleph make a difference? I doubt it. My money's on reducing the number of thermal cycles. Your mileage may vary :-)

I use an Aleph 5 and on weekends I leave it continuously on. For after work use, consider this, after a day at work and following a commute, it's probably the worst time of day to really listen to music. Your body's too wound up and your ears have probably been bombarded with noise. Take some time to chill out before doing any serious listening. Your emotional state is just as important as the state of your equipment. I know, I'm being real deep.

nerdlab-as I posted earlier,I stand by my position.My converssation with Pass over this issue is good enough for me.You posted earler you personally worked WITH Nelson Pass.Please explain what you did and when and where.Thank you,I am very interested to hear about your experiences with Mr.Pass......

If nothing else, I want to know why Nedlabs is incapable of using a lower case character.

I'm with you Nhorton. In my spare time I moderate two chat rooms. As most of us know, using all caps on the www means you are screaming and is universally considered quite rude. The most popular response cappers give for their behavior is "it's my trademark". The only cure seems to be booting them back into cyberspace where at least they can annoy someone else. In all but extreme cases it works quite well :-)
