Re: Is it better to leave CS50,60,80 powered on most of day

I cannot see how it would do any harm. I am not suggesting that you
try *running* the CS80 on, say, half mains volts - just turn her on
and bring the volts up to full slowly.

How can any component *complain* ... ?? The process might only take a
few seconds...

Let me know your thoughts...
Cheers
TOM
