Since I run the entire system from a 20 amp rated balanced power transformer that has a master switch, its easy for me to shut down the entire system, including those components that stay on "standby" and contribute to "vampire" draw. I usually do not have much or any time to listen during the week; so everything stays cold then.However, the first time I power up the system for the weekend (beginning with Friday evening), I leave the main power on and leave the stuff on standby to suck a little power. I also leave the tube phonostage (my only tube component) fully powered up (it has no standby). The phonostage really seems to want a full 30 minutes of warm up to sound its best. The transistor integrated amp, which goes to standby, does not seem to need warm up; nor does the CD/SACD player.
Then, when I'm done listening Sunday night, the main switch goes off.
