Aca amp powered on 24/7

So what are your thoughts on leaving the the 8 watt aca amp on all the time?
Guy who built this unit recommended.
Thanks for your thoughts

I've been leaving mine on all the time, same as with my Naim gear. They sound better that way. Still have a pair wired as parallel monoblocks, using the Mean Well 24V SMPS for each amp.

Guess my only concern I did this with original adcom 555 and had early cap failure.

As a general understanding, capacitors and resistors have mean life time. so life time of ACA will reduce.
