In the 1970's I had an amplifier go up in flames. I would not leave my stereo on if no one was home.

The '70s is over 30 years ago. In addition yours is the only case of a stereo system catching fire from just being left on that I'm aware of. From that perspective you shouldn't leave on computers or other electronic or electrical products as well when not at home. In the real world, your experience not withstanding, there is little risk of a fire unless the house wiring is substandard and the circuit breakers are incapable of doing their job.
Maggies, because you can never be too thin!
