To turn speaker power button off or not?

post #1 of 8
Thread Starter 
So is it good to turn the power off of your speakers when you're not using them. I just got a used pair of Logitech Z2300 & I want to prolong the life of these speakers lol so if my computer is off or if I'm not at my computer should I turn the power off for the speakers or is it fine to leave them on?

Things usually lasts longer when they're not constantly being used. Light bulbs, engines, monitors etc
