I left my Pass X-250 on 24/7 for almost 2 years. Nelson Pass told me it required about an hour to really warm up and come into it's own. When I asked about just leaving it on, he said it wouldn't hurt if I could take the power bill and the heat. I'd recommend you email Steve McCormick and ask him- after all it's his baby.
Leave an amp "on" permanetly
I understand that tube amps need to warm up sufficently before they can reach their potential. Is this also true with SS amps? I own a McCormack DNA-1 deluxe, and I hear a discernable difference when listening to my system "cold" versus "warmed-up". Do you also find this to be true?
If so, would people recommend leaving a SS amp on permanently? Could I damage my amp by doing this?
