Paul.......Just reach around behind the preamp and unplug the power cord from the IEC socket on the preamp.

I am just going to leave it on, your right it consumes nothing
|
I use a power conditioner for my front end components, so when I'll be traveling for business I'll just unplug the conditioners main feed to disconnect everything.
Otherwise the XP-20 and other sources (expect the tube phono pre) remain "on". |
hi, how many hours need `pres` pass for break ?

"How long do the preamps need to break in? That depends. The XP-10, XP-20 and XP-15 need about 24 hours to fully warm up. The XP-25 and XP-30 take closer to 36 hours. After initial warm up period the preamps will continue to improve as long as they are left on." I purchased my xp20 several years back, but the 10 days I had it for audition were enough for it to show what it could do. |
10 days at 24hs per day ?
i have int60 with aprox 70 hs. |
I just turn off the display and mute my XP-10 when not in use.
|
I would leave it on normally and unplug it if you're going out of town, expecting bad thunderstorms etc.
