Actually, I think it is.

I turn everything off at the wall - a power strip with one big button - when not in use, and it made a huge difference to the electric bill. An exception being the Mac which goes to sleep, and wakes on network access. Before listening, I try to give things 30 mins or so to warm up (for clocks to stabilise, etc). Class A amps are just too power hungry to be left doing nothing (but warming the living room) for days at a time. As for femto clocks, they'll get over it.
