12v triggered outlet?

Thanks for starting this thread, Programmergeek.
(Interesting moniker, btw).

I too want to have a remote (or even a wired) 12V trigger to turn on my Lamm M2.1 amps. They are wired for such a trigger, but my Ayre K-1xe does not have such an output.

Any thoughts?

If your preamp has a switched 115 volt outlet just go to Radio Shack and buy a 12 volt wall power supply and use it to turn on the amps that have trigger inputs.

If the power anp does not have a trigger you will need to use a relay to turn its power on and off. This relay can have a 12 volt or 115 volt coil, depending on what your preamp can supply. Radio Shack for relays. Install the relay in a large electrical box, with outlets according to your need.

Programmergeek and Kurt, I have the exact same deal with my Lamm M1.1 monos and LL2 Deluxe preamp. Eldartford, my LL2 and Kurt's K-1xe do not have switched outlets. Could this be as simple as wiring a switch in line on one half of a 12V DC power supply then connecting the wires to the amp using female 2 or 2.1 mm connectors, keeping the amp plugged in and using the DC wired switch to power the amp on-off?
