Here's a bone for all you "audio rats out there to knaw on........

I recently got into a rather heavy discussion with a friend about how
long a time is necessary to allow your audio gear to warmup to
expect the best results from same.
  He had read an article in AUDIO AMATEUR (sp?) that it was necessary
to warmup a Hafler DH-101 for at least 24 hours to get the best results.
Another friend of mine leaves his system on all weekend ( that's when he
does most of his listening).
Some "tube freaks" I know let their units burn 24 hours a day all the time.

How about it? Any comments?
