I am the proud owner of a Parasound amp (85wpcx5), but I have a couple questions
How does the 12v trigger work, exactly? Will it power the amp on (same as turning it on via the power switch) and off as the source providing the trigger is powered on/off? Any drawbacks to using a 12v trigger (providing that the triggering equimpment supports the needed voltage)?
Is it better to leave the amp powered on all the time or to turn it on/off as needed (to prevent heat build-up)? It will likely be used 5-6 nights a week 1-4 hours at a time?
And a question that just occured to me.....
If an A/V rack/stand containing a 42lb amp, 32lb receiver, 250lb TV, 100lbs of wood and 50lbs of miscellanious equipment, cableing and speakers fell on the viewer (killing him/her); would it make the local news?
