Well finally found something I overlooked
when last shopping for a receiver, the DC Trigger - The Marantz sr4002
does not have one. It was not a big deal at the time because I really did not understand what it did. So the dilemma now is how to get around this.
I have a 12 outlet surge protector/power station 6000 or 7000 joules - can't think of the make (I'm at work) that has a 12v DC in/out which allows 4 of the outlet including the 2 high voltage units to be powered at the same time as the receiver if it had a trigger. Is there some type of external trigger that can be installed between the receiver and surge protector
