Pre-amp on 1st, then power amp.
Power amp off 1st, then pre-amp.

Excellent. Thanks.
I was wondering what happens if there is a Mains power outage. Do audiophiles with expensive pre and power take some precautions? I was thinking of a battery operated Inverter to save my not very expensive Pre and Power components that are very dear to me.
Cheers

A couple of years ago we had a lightening strike that took out a lot of elecctronics. As it turned out, Hifi was the least of my concern, but since then I unplug when I start to hear thunder. We have 6 lightening rods and surge protectors, still took out equipment.
Such uninteruptible PS rarely put out a good sine wave.
And the capacity needed to run a stereo is a LOT. If you were struck with an outage, you'd have time to do a controlled shutdown and not much else.
Too much is never enough
