Earth Day, turn those amps OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Earth Day, turn those amps OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've said it before, I'll say it again, it is Environmentally IRRESPONSIBLE to leave your equipment on for long periods of time, before or after, or truly despicable, ON all the time!

On, 20 mins, listen, done, off!

Doctors, Lawyers, Trust Fund Kiddos, come on now.

Where were you in 1970?, I was there in Manhattan (went to college at Pratt in Brooklyn 1966-1970)

If you were there in 1970, then you probably remember Ira Einhorn, cofounder of Earth Day, A real piece of work scrubbed from history

I turn off my CD transport and subwoofer when I’m not using them, my preamp and amps stay on standby and so does my streamer (I think). The only thing that stays on 24/7 is my DAC that uses +- 20 watts.

 What kills me is heating and cooling.

If you were in the 60 s you dont rember it. Class d is comming of age. D sonic is a Pascal module 1500 in 8 2400 in 4. Smsl pa gan class d mo o 500 watts 600$  no heat.enjoy the music cuz you can leave it on all  the time and the music.

@lewm No. Although the timeline just about dovetails. Sad Story. "Fell in love with  a teacher." A lot of that back then.  That's her on "Lebanese Blonde". Never knew.

Waste is just Waste. 

Everything, especially our grandchildren, suffer from our bad choices.

This is common sense (and basic physics, chemistry & biology).

Don't be greedy or arrogant - each of us should do better. 

Earth Day is just a reminder of the bigger picture.
