I agree with Sirquack on this one. Based on my limited electonics experience, electronic components tend to work better when they are warm, not hot, but warm. It's easier on the components when you want to need to really push them if there is a little bit of heat in them.

Think of a light bulb, light bulbs blow usually when you first turn it on (from a cold start). That is why I leave my amp(s) computer equipment always on and why we now see the word Standby on TV's as apposed to off. Never never use a powerbar to shut off and turn on your equipment on a reg. basis.
