do you leave your amp/dac on all the time?

i have an all in one streamer/integrated amp from naim that i leave on 24/7, and recently tested out a NAD c 3050 LE- noticed this amp turns off after 15 mins or so of being left on standby w no music playing, which i thought was a little weird. do you leave your integrated amp on or off? thanks

This seems excessively wasteful from a power consumption point of view.

  Indeed. Leaving my 7.1 receiver on with nothing playing doubles my household electrical base load. Definitely worth investing in some remote control switches with power monitoring and plugging your AV gear into it. It’s quite the eye-opener.
