[QUOTE="ludo, post: 58383, member: 691"] PSU caps, transformers and fuses take maximum stress when switching the amp on. Power switch takes max stress when switching off, which is probably not an issue for you as it is most likely not a mechanical switch in the automation system(?) In a sensible design, with good ventilation, things last longer when left on. Unless you're on the Highveld and using an AVR with lots of CMOS circuitry in it, like the Yamaha. Then lightning, karmic balance sheets and your insurance company have the final say... [/QUOTE]
