Many years ago, an electrician told me for integrated circuits and transistors, there is a heat up, and cool down period. And that this is not good for the circuits, and that it is better if they were left on. But I`ve neve followed this strategy with any amplifiers or receivers that I have owned. And, I can`t see that there was any evidence in my experience that my electronics did not benefit from this practice.

More thoughts?
