I've been in the habit of putting the Empeg into sleep mode (holding down the top button) before pulling it from the dash or removing the AC power.

This comes from my habit of turning off my old pullout CD player before removing it. For that unit, there were some mechanical clamps that would lock the CD head assembly into place, effectively "parking" the fragile parts. For that unit, it was important, and old habits die hard.

So I try not to just "yank out" the Empeg while it's playing. But here's my question: Should I even bother? Is there anything wrong with just yanking the power while it's playing?
