joec64 Posted May 2, 2001 Share Posted May 2, 2001 I leave all my systems on all of the time/rec./sub/DVD,I always heard that turing these on and off was worse than leaving on,no problems for last year Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ERIK Posted May 3, 2001 Share Posted May 3, 2001 I think that depends on how long the components will be off. If I'm going to turn them back on in a half hour then I leave them on, but If I'm going to work or to bed I turn everything off. I would think the time to rest and cool down would be better than the small stress from the powering up and a down. I think that theory came from older components like the old TV's that would blow tubes, but with the modern components it's a much more gentle procedure.

boa12 Posted May 3, 2001 Share Posted May 3, 2001 yea imo that turning on/off thing is really pretty much fiction these days. & there's also the power consumption/cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
