Leaving your amps on,


Lately I have noticed that I have a slight "white" noise coming from my speakers when not in use, I do leave my amp's "ON" all the time. Will that slight noise affect the speakers in any way

Very efficient speakers and even good amps can have this occur. I had a pair of Klipsch La Scalas (104dB). Pretty much always had a some white noise. I was using a 40 watt class A/B amplifier of good, but not great quality. Will it damage the speakers over time? Very hard to say, and probably very equipment dependent as Richard already pointed out.
